"Containers is an interesting feature that Mozilla implemented in the Firefox web browser some time ago. It provides users with a way to separate sites from each other, and benefits of doing so are clear: less tracking, improved privacy, and the ability to sign-in to multiple accounts in a single browsing session.

The extension ships with the four default containers personal, work, banking and shopping, and users may add more containers, rename existing ones, or customize them with different colors or icons.

The last version I used there's no 'Export/Import' settings like in uBO. I forgot to do a backup the hard way and all my links were wiped clean. Not using the add-on then

Does this new version comes with a simple 'Export/Import' settings without having to do the hard way?

EDIT

Just checked the new version. Still no 'Export/Import' settings feature. So not using it.
