Following video of thelinuxexperiment and all the news against mozilla.
I finally switched to librewolf completely.
I exported and imported all kind of data too.

But I want to use ffsync only to keep my mobile (android) in sync with my pc (want to sync history also so flocuss etc will not work)
So I want to enable ffsync in librewolf

I have seen faq but as mozilla recently introduced their terms of usage (and all the hate against it)
Is it still private enough to use ffsync? what can be downsides?

    No idea - this is my firefox sync NixOS config, in its entirety:

      age.secrets.ffsync.rekeyFile = secrets.ffsync;
      services.firefox-syncserver = {
        enable = true;
        secrets = config.age.secrets.ffsync.path;
        settings.hostname = "localhost";
    
        singleNode = {
          enable = true;
          hostname = "0.0.0.0";
          capacity = 2;
        };
      };

      I wonder if it still needs account management on Mozilla server or on your own. May I?

        Yeaaaaaaahh the auth thing is really, really complicated to selfhost. There’s a docker project out there that apparently makes it possible, but… No idea. FOr the time being I still use FF’s auth - that’s still an improvement though: Mozilla knows that I am logging in / from what kind of device, but not the content or amount of what I sync.
