Thanks for supporting this feature! I can't wait for this feature to release and make Orion my main browser!

I was wondering if this feature was still on the roadmap for the next couple releases - or if it had been pushed bacK?

      I just had a read through the entire thread and wanted to +1 this feature request -- thanks for keeping this updated @Vlad, appreciate it very much!

      This has been the main feature preventing me from fully jumping ship from Firefox to Orion. Excited for the day this makes it to the stable release.

      As a DevOps Engineer having to log in to multiple clouds with multiple roles for multiple clients, Firefox Containers is the Holy Grail. I hope to see this in Orion.

      Orion is an awesome browser and it's a great user experience! I have signed up as an Orion+ lifetime member

      Thank you in advance :-)

      Dear Orion Community,
      I am really enjoying using Orion and all the built-in features out of the box, such as the development tools. The more I explore, the more I am wowed by this browser. It's very lightweight on resources, and combined with Kagi is the Swiss Army knife of browsers combined with SpaceX rocket speed.

      As a DevOps Engineer, I need to log in to multiple clouds, multiple environments (non-prod, pre-prod and prod) using multiple roles for multiple clients. I have tried the profile route, but this ends up being a lot of config, each profile requiring the extensions I use, each profile window needs configuration and management and involves much context switching. I figure you could combine profiles with containers to allow multiple role logins for that particular profile.

      Firefox's containers is the holy grail, allowing an engineer, for example, to group multiple AWS roles and environments and add to that the AWS SSO Containers extension, and you have a powerful all in one window solution which I prefer.

      I did try installing Firefox Containers from the Add-ons store, but the experience was suboptimal and didn't function like in Firefox itself. I just get the spinning blue donut. I also tried turning compatibility mode on and off and reinstalling the extension.




      Would the Orion devs consider adding a Firefox containers like solution to the browser ever or even just being able to use Firefox Containers and sync my current Firefox container data would be awesome too.

      Thank you.

          While you’re implementing this, please consider that Firefox also allows the user to provide a proxy per container profile. I’m using this extensively together with SSH SOCKS tunnels in order to access different internal services on different production sites around the world. This is the only thing that’s keeping me with LibreWolf. Let me know if it makes sense to have an extra topic for this. Thanks.

            @Vlad I saw that RC 128 was released not too long ago, and was hoping to see multi-account container support in there, but no luck. Could you please let us know if this feature is still on the roadmap?

              Created an account to comment on this. I use containers to completely segregate all Facebook properties (Facebook, Instagram , etc). Most web based companies are doing tracking, but the idea of those Facebook Like buttons everywhere tracking my every move is very unappealing.

                Vlad Given that one doesn't always know in advance whether an unfamiliar website (or a different page on, say, eBay) is going to have one of Facebook's "like" buttons, I would think one would wind up having to create a new profile whenever opening a search result on an unfamiliar website (or whenever clicking on a search result in eBay). The Facebook container takes care of that for you. In Firefox, if you open a page that has a Facebook "like" button on it, the extension's icon shows a purple dot with an exclamation point, and if you click the icon you get a message letting you know that Facebook doesn't see that you've been to that page, but warning you that if you click the "like" button, that page will be tied to your Facebook identity (I'm assuming that you'd have to be signed in to Facebook in order for this to happen, but I don't know for sure).

                  Vlad Can I force all Facebook and Instagram links to open in a certain profile?

                      apastuszak No but that is a different ask, already addressed with a a different feature suggestion here.
