Can I create a different home page (or new tab page) per container tab?

When I open a new container tab, I generally am going to a specific page or set of pages (e.g. 80% of the time I open a Google container tab, I'm going to google.com, or else it's Gmail, Music or YouTube). It would save me so much time If when I create a new container it went straight to it's related home page or new tab page. Thanks.

Please consider turning on send info to Mozilla before posting a question. This helps us help you. Yes but need a extension. https://www.google.ca/search?q=firefox+new+tab+extension&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=xeH7WfmOHcHMjwORgo7YDg Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

I'm trying to keep my number of extensions to a minimum, so I wouldn't install it just for this feature. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I realized after making this post that just using Ctrl + T and typing the keyword or web address, combined with having those domains always open in those containers, is faster than using the mouse to create a new tab of a specific container.

I'll look into the send info thing. Thanks.

Speaking of extensions, are you using:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/

This extension is developed on Github, and you can check whether anyone has filed an issue for container-specific new tab pages, or propose it as a feature:

Yes, I'm using that extension and am a huge fan of it. I thought it was officially incorporated into FireFox now but I could be wrong. I'll consider posting the suggestion on their github. Thanks.
