You can make all of these yourself as long as you've got the Temporary Containers add-on installed. I don't see the benefit of installing four addons for this purpose, as the security risk of third-party addon vendors surely outweighs the convenience of a pre-configured container.

Has temporary containers gotten the feature to drop the container when leaving the target sites? That's the main difference for me.
If I'm in FB Messenger and click an external link I don't want that link to be opened in the FB container.
I think it's actually just a containers feature now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24850878
I use per-domain isolation, so I don't run into this issue.
However, I need 2 manual persistent containers for sites that are broken with per-domain isolation (Gmail and Outlook 365). Both visit many different domains after login. Within those containers, I need to be careful not to click on external links, but to open them in a new temporary container.
