Are Firefox containers useful? (lemmy.ml)

Apart from signing into multiple accounts or isolating pages under the same domain, is there any advantage to using Firefox containers from a security standpoint or do you think that Total Cookie Protection is sufficient for most use cases / threat models?

Anything that is Facebook/Meta is in its own container for me. That way they can "track" as much as they want, they won't see new or even accurate Info.
