I need fine grained, automated cookie controls I have tried these addons

Cookie Manager Cookie Quick Manager Cookie AutoDelete

And the problem is always the same.

It is TOO DIFFICULT to only have one exception for one cookie in one account container

Creating containers for every single website is also extremely tedious and buggy.

And deleting all cookies all the time, means I am re-logging in into everything all the time, often a 5 to 10 step process not counting 2 factor and it is VERY annoying

Cookie AutoDelete hasn't been updated for 2+ years and, in my experience, is buggy in combination with containers.

Also, while it did delete cookies, it did not delete certain data in the user's profile folder, still exposing all visited sites (while using Firefox's own history tools does delete this data normally.)
