Store browser bookmarks and sync via NAS

[SynoMan]

Is there any way to store browser bookmarks on a NAS and sync them through devices?

Well, Safari does this for me automatically via iCloud, but for none Safari users, there is this, as one solution:

GitHub - floccusaddon/floccus: Sync your bookmarks privately across browsers and devices

:cloud: Sync your bookmarks privately across browsers and devices - GitHub - floccusaddon/floccus: Sync your bookmarks privately across browsers and devices

github.com

Also I use

GitHub - shaarli/Shaarli: The personal, minimalist, super-fast, database free, bookmarking service - community repo

But this is not a sync tool, still, its a self hosted platform for bookmarks

One of the reasons I use FF on Windows, to sync back via iCloud to Safari. Annoyingly I have to also use FF sync to get the FF on Windows to maintain the FF on Mac's bookmarks. It's a pain. Still easier than the HTML page I used to maintain.

I'm on Windows using FF sync for desktop/laptop. On my mobile currently I don't need bookmarks sync. Well, it would be nice, but FF mobile version is not fast enough...

There is also a Firefox sync container.

This one: Docker Hub ?

Well, I'm extremely new to Docker, so Bitwarden for now is over the head

 

[jphermans]

Yes, think so. Don’t use it but I know it exist.

So if I set that container up in my Docker, how do I point my FF on my Windows and Android machines to sync to that container..?

Right now in my login script I've set a robocopy from %AppData%\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles to the Synology homedir. But that doesn't sync to my mobile phone at all.

I think that you have to fill in your nas as server on al your devices. Don’t use ff but will test it tomorrow.

there is no option for that

 

[jphermans]

You have the possibility to sync your bookmarks with the ff server or with your own server. And that you can do on your nas when you install Firefox sync container. Link more info.
