Anyone tried this beta version yet? Any idea how stable it is?
Whenever you have issue with Firefox, first thing that you should try is ‘Troubleshoot mode’ -
Firefox Menu > Help > Troubleshoot Mode
I think that’s for Gnome App developers and not for regular users.
Firefox Containers are for Cookies and Storage separation. Profile, on the other hand, is a COMPLETE separation in all aspects of Firefox’s user data, setup , add-ons.
Always use a separate Firefox profile for banking needs.

For What application you face issue? I’m curious as XWayland should provide backward compatibility.
Used Mainline to install it on Ubuntu 23.10. Together with Nvidia driver v550, it is working without an issue for me.
Wait, I thought they are recipient of Sovereign Tech Fund. Didn’t that help them with their budget?

Bad news is that it is not clear at this point whether Mozilla is going to go forward with the implementation. A post on Reddit by one of the project members suggests that the build is a “rough proof-of-concept”. Some features tested in the build “did not survive”. It is unclear which did not, as they are not mentioned. Mozilla is, however, implementing those that survived the cut into Firefox. Again, the poster does not mention which those are. It is also not verified that the poster is actually a member of the project team, so take this with a grain of salt as well.
For Ubuntu, I use https://ubuntu.com/security/oval
In India, the share of Linux desktop became double just within one year (from 8% to 16%). I only hope this data is right.
