I just selfhost the Firefox sync which then synchronizes my Firefox bookmarks to all the laptops, desktops and mobile phones.
Didn't knew that was possible... seems not easy to set-up :/ is also an old article, you sure this still works?
Ah yeah the article is quite old and it got much easier to set up, see: https://mozilla-services.readthedocs.io/en/latest/howtos/run-sync-1.5.html
The important thing is to understand that there is Firefox Account and Firefox Sync. You can self host both of them, self hosting Sync is very easy, Accounts is very difficult. Sync depends on Accounts. But you can use Mozillas Accounts and your own Sync. This way you use their server to log into your own sync server. Your passwords, history, etc. are only stored on your own Sync server.
Thank you :) Will look at it, right now I'm happy with selfhosted linkding, but I really miss the native bookmarking way of firefox (tags, folder, subfolders, keywords.)
Yeah the folder thing definitely keeps me there.
Woah thats so cool. I didn't know this was a thing at all! Thanks for sharing. :)
Does it also sync other data? Like saved passwords, history, settings, etc.?
Yes
Damn. It might be the best solution I've seen yet. I don't think the NextCloud app does all that.
This is not part of Nextcloud as far as I know, just the sync server written in python.
Am I wrong in assuming that this only works with Firefox and isn't available to sync other browsers?
No, you're correct, this only works with Firefox. And this is one of the reasons why I'm staying on Firefox both on mobile and browser.
