    Works exactly as expected and very easy to use. Excellently recreates Google Chrome's profile system.

    Doesnt work importing Tree Tabs groups (tabs imported unloaded). It changes the container only when tab is clicked/loaded, loses the tab order placing it at the top of the list. (At least the container tabs rightclick method opens it next to the old tab). Might be fixed if old tab is closed AFTER the new tab is opened?

    Update: It does work! Just that the new-tab page doesn't reflect that. It shows the container only *when* a URL is loaded. It's not the same as opening a new container tab from the main container extension (that one does show the new-tab page with the container color and name). The user has to take a leap of faith (potentially risky) by loading the URL without receiving adequate affordance (like the color and name) in the new-tab page.
    Star increased :)

    Doesn't seem to work for me on MacOS 10.14.4 with Firefox 66.0.3. Created new window, switched container, closed the first non-container tab, then created new tabs with cmd+t but they are regular non-container tabs.

    Thank you for reporting this. Did you open a page in the newly opened tab? The newly opened tab starts as "default" but switches to the container just before loading an external site. My add-on cannot display default firefox pages such as the new tab page or any "about" pages in a container. At least I haven't found a way to reliably do this yet.

    If it doesn't work for you, I would be grateful, if we can have a chat on the github issues page https://github.com/chronakis/firefox-sticky-window-containers/issues so that I can solve the problem.

    Thank you.
