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?
Just to be clear, what do you mean by Google-affiliated links, anything
*.google.com?Is your default container the one with the Google cookies? Or is your default one not signed and you have a separate one you have to manually open to access the Google account?
Regardless, I would do the following:
Therefore, any link you click on will go to the default container, and is isolated from the Google containers. If you do want to, say, go to Gmail, then just open a new tab in the special Google container manually. This is easier to set up than the inverse where you have to filter by links. Or, if you only use Gmail signed in, but say, not YouTube, then add a auto redirect rule so that Gmail always open in the special Google container.
Also look into Temporary containers if you don’t care about cookies and want more isolation on top of the default container.
Yeah, pretty much it.
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
