How can I efficiently delete all cookies, continuously, except certain session cookies in certain specific containers ? (lemmy.ml)

I need fine grained, automated cookie controls I have tried these addons

Cookie Manager Cookie Quick Manager Cookie AutoDelete

And the problem is always the same.

It is TOO DIFFICULT to only have one exception for one cookie in one account container

Creating containers for every single website is also extremely tedious and buggy.

And deleting all cookies all the time, means I am re-logging in into everything all the time, often a 5 to 10 step process not counting 2 factor and it is VERY annoying

Have you tried two browsers?

One browser for logins that doesn't auto delete data when closed.

My second browser deletes everything, except bookmarks, when I close it.

Yes, I am considering using multiple portable instances of waterfox for this exact purpose. I think my final solution will be a mix of many different methods of containment and parrallel instances.
