I'm a heavy user of the "firefox containers" feature, where I try to isolate the social media sites to their own containers (twitter, facebook etc) and also one for reddit. I've also got one for google products as well as I try to use DDG most of the time.

Anyway I wish FF had a feature that broke down the cookies PER container, so I could purge any ones that might have snuck in due to a lapse in my judgement, e.g. if I see facebook cookies in my "twitter" container then I'd like to purge them for that particular container only.

FF only allows you to do a global purge.

EDIT: I can see this bug was raised 3 years ago which suggests it _used_ to be a feature that got removed, but sounds like it was never put back in/low priority/WONTFIX. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1480175

Not the clearest UI, but https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-quick-... does what you want.
