anything *.google.com ?

Yeah, pretty much it.

Is your default container the one with the Google cookies?

I personally haven’t found a way to make a container default. I just have a separate container for my Google accounts and other accounts connected to it.

Thankfully I found the solution to my problem by using Temporary Containers


How do I make it so that all redirecting links open in my browser without automatically logging in t
I am new to Librewolf and downloaded Multi Account Containers addon along with libredirect, skip redirect and ublock origin. I am currently signed in a container with a Google account and set the URL to always open in that container. However I do not want to allow any Google-affiliated redirecting links to automatically open within that container and sign me in with that account, letting Google know what I had been browsing or searching for even when I would not want them to. This issue is restricting me from making Librewolf my default browser. How do I make it so that all these links, whether clicked on from somewhere within the browser or an external application, open in a separate container or without a container or in a private window, if possible?

Woah, email aliases is the perfect solution for this! Thank you very much!


Also, is there a preferred way to create a Firefox account? I don’t want to enter my personal email, and adding a disposable email may lock me from this account if it asks for verification later on.


Yes, I did start using PIped and Invidious on my browser and installed Newpipe in my phone. Tho there are some drawbacks, it is much better than using Youtube directly after I heard about them planning to block adblockers and removing recommendations for signed in users with watch history off.


Migrating from Brave to LibreWolf. Any suggestions or precautions?
I've recently downloaded Librewolf and I am planning to transfer my data from Brave to it. I am a privacy aware user but I haven't had much experience in using Firefox directly. I have Firefox installed but I have some other old things stored in it (accounts, cache, bookmarks etc.) that I do not want to disturb, nor do I want to use as my default browser. I thought Librewolf would offer a more private and better version of Firefox with a clean slate. Are there some things to keep in mind while transferring my workflow from a Chromium based browser to a Firefox one? Are there some things to keep in mind specifically for Librewolf? Would I need to change my browsing habits? Some points about my browser workflow to help you better judge what I may need : - I have some accounts saved in my previous browser e.g. Google, Discord, Spotify etc. that I don't use really much, but require them regardless - I use uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock as the only extensions - I mostly do light casual browsing e.g. searching for stuff in DDG, streaming video/audio, communication etc. - I have been recently avoiding proprietary software and websites in favour of privacy-respecting alternatives and frontends, to the best of my abilities - I occassionally use Tor for anonymously working in websites that I have logged onto in my main browser - I have had Brave installed on my Android phone too, synced with my PC - I installed Mull in my phone in the hope of pairing it with Librewolf while avoiding creating a Firefox account if possible - I use Proton VPN (free tier) whenever I use my browser(s) Sorry if I may be asking obvious questions or doing things blatantly wrong as a privacy respecting user.
