"Google leverages login friction to nudge you toward staying logged in forever—because that’s where their data goldmine lives."
After the captcha after one page for usename, reload click again select again login credentials another page load
and final insult
In 6 separate login containers at least twice a day ....
It's clear they want the user to stay logged in and disable their anti-tracking protections
Create an exception for cookie deletion on the google.com domain?
I still want all cookies gone exception the session cookies. And only in the specified containers.
So exception per cookie (to only keep the session cookie) and per container (my gmail, google and youtube are all logged into separate accounts.
My default container maintains no ID.
Lastly, I am search for a solution that also easily works with websites other than google
I don't really understand what you're asking for, but maybe you'd benefit from Firefox's multi-account containers extension (domains can have their cookies isolated). Or from a more rigorous usage of the Firefox profiles features (type about:profiles in the address bar) and create a dedicated google profile, a dedicated vpn profile, and leave a regular personal profile. You can theme them so they look distinct when you have them open.
I used to use both. Firefox profile switcher is currently broken The problem is that cookie auto delete is very all-or-nothing. No per container settings. No way to choose to keep only the session cookies only for certain websites in certain containers.
