Reviews for Facebook Container
Facebook Container by Firefox
Review by Firefox user 14532472
Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 14532472, 5 years agoI purposely avoided registering at Facebook precisely because of my concerns about privacy issues. I joined in the middle of last year though because of a need to find and communicate with certain people about a death in the family. I was totally unprepared for the steep learning curve I'd have to navigate if I wanted to control my visibility both on and off the platform. When I saw Facebook Container in one of the Mozilla Newsletters, I was concerned about it slowing down my browsing, causing links to break and being a distraction that I'd always be having to mess with. That's the way a lot of installations of add-ons to Firefox have gone for me, but Hallelujah! Not this time! This is the best-working add-on I've ever installed, and I've been using Firefox since the very early days. All of my concerns have proven to be unfounded. I hope it stays that way, because several add-ons have started out great and only after a bunch of updates, went bad. But for now, Five-Stars all the way, with many thanks to Mozilla for it!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Saint.77, 18 days agoOne of the essentials for privacy and anonymity on the web which cuts off facebook tracking from outside of facebook. I combine this with google container and twitter/x container. In addition you can use about:config privacy.firstparty.isolate = "true" or privacy.partition.network_state = "true" to isolate webpages from eachother.

- Rated 4 out of 5by grace46202, 2 months agoIf the container is accidentally deleted it can glitch out and does not re-create it by itself, requiring you to manually re-create a container to fix it. Otherwise this works great!
- Rated 5 out of 5by ninefoldrin, 2 months agoReally love this add-on. I appreciate anything keeping Facebook disconnected from myself.
As I don't know how else to potentially report a bug or anything like that, I'm also using this review to inform that there appears to be an issue with Etsy. When attempting to log into Etsy (with email login) it says there is an error until I try with Etsy allowed in Facebook Container. I'm not sure if this is something fixable or if Facebook has found a way to break Facebook Container. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19239252, 3 months agoLove the idea. Only gave 4 of 5 stars because of instead of just opening a new tab, it closes my original tab. SUPER ANNOYING to loose my search because I clicked on a FB or IG link. Fix this to just open a new tab automatically and i'll rate to 5 stars.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Filter Your Water!, 3 months agoI don't even really know if it works but I find it really cool that firefox themselves made this extension because fuck Facebook and all other large and megacap companies led by psychopaths.

- Rated 1 out of 5by shino1, 4 months agoThis extension WILL completely break Threads website. I'm assuming it blocks access to some necessary Instagram stuff.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 19105114, 4 months agoNever downloaded the Extension. But I've always been perplexed why so many people issue 1 or two stars and NO review. Just sayin
