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

Yes in theory they could be storing everything on the server if you have a session login In practice, anything they leave on my PC I will flush If that breaks some of their tracking ability, that's even better. I don't want to keep anything more than the actual session cookies, everything else goes in the trash after 20 minutes of inactivity
