No, because the set up page for it has never actually loaded for me. Ever

It's a great way to set up Firefox on a new device. Why wouldn't I want to install the same extensions and copy my bookmarks? I wish it also synced toolbar layout so I wouldn't have to remove those weird spacers Firefox adds around the address bar by default every time

I love Sync!

Except on iOS, where my bookmarks and passwords never actually synch, because it's not really Firefox but a weird skin on Safari because... Apple.

I used it accidentally. Now my work PC and my personal laptop have a mishmash of unwanted bookmarks on each

I wouldn't have it any other way. I need to have my desktop and phone browsers synced.

Nah, I dont use it. In fact, I go through and disable almost all the "extra" stuff in any browser I install. I'm of the "Do one thing well" school of thought, so all these apps trying to do everything, all at once, just to keep you in "their" system? No thanks. Sync offers absolutely zero features that don't have better, alternative options already.

Rarely, mostly due to accessing a cool website I found a few days ago on the device I am currently using

[–] Audacious@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I tried it at two separate times, and both times it would delete my tabs when I add a new device to sync. Maybe I used it wrong, but it just aggravated me to disable it quickly.
