I use Firefox (LibreWolf with Mozilla sync) on multiple devices. To have my tabs, extensions and history easy available I use Mozilla for syncing that data.
Would it be possible to just use a generic sync service like rsync or something, to sync the profile folders and every file in it?
Or would that break or corrupt data?
You sure about that? From memory It did work with floccus (though it does it in a weird way).
Yeah that’s probably the tricky part in your workflow ! Not sure if syncing your directory will keep the open tabs. Though I may be wrong here because I personally don’t use that functionality !
Yeah maybe my instructions are ment for backups rather than keeping a workflow in sync with all your devices. Sorry for my bad reading skills !
Dunno if a self-hosted Firefox sync does sync Open Tabs between devices, if it does It’s probably your best bet !Also, syncing your whole profile between Desktop/laptop and your phone won’t work that easily… They behave very differently and do not have the same directory structure/files on your phone.
Edit: Here’s the self-hosted Mozilla Sync storage server
https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncstorage-rs
After skimming through the docs it seems to sync everything (bookmarks, tabs, history, extensions…)
