Container Addons (lemmy.ml)

I'm doing a quick review of the Addons that I am using on my Windows PC. I've had a look at some of the previous posts to try to get an idea of where things are at

Currently I have the following Container related Addons but I think things have moved on a bit since I looked at this.

This means that opening Facebook and Google automatically goes into relevant containers and using Switch I can create separate containers for Work, Banking etc.

I noticed that I'm not using Mozzilla's Multi-Account Containers

Ideally I'd like to be able to:

Have Facebook and Google Open in their own containers
Potentially open separate containers for different Google Accounts
Allocate other domains to open by default in a specific container (e.g a list of Bank websites into a specific container) but be able to override that
Have links from Thunderbird open in relevant containers

What are people using in terms of Container addons?

Whats the point of containers if third party cookies are blocked?

You can sign into multiple accounts into the same website in different tabs. I use this to be able to sign into many different AWS accounts for work where AWS doesn't natively support this.

I'm curious too, they're great for managing multiple accounts on services that don't natively support multiple. But as far as I know from a privacy perspective I'm not sure they have any advantage anymore.
