  • I think the last one is a dutch "translation" of the word "zandloper" (meaning "hourglass") to german.

  • System Against People

    SandlauferAktivierungsProgramme

  • Headline: Trump officials mistakenly texted war plans to reporter

    Actual news: Trump officials intentionally use(d) unclassified systems to share classified information

  • Silly me ... always thougth Patagonia was from Argentina .... but its based in Ventura, California.

  • Thnx, so practically not doable. Also file and directory structure differs between PC and Android adding further to the problem.

  • You sure about that? From memory It did work with floccus (though it does it in a weird way).

    Floccus for Android is a local standalone app, usefull but doesnt read / write to Firefox Android bookmarks ..

    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 !

    Appreciated still, I backup with restic but indeed these are usefull for backup.

    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.

    This, for me, is the real answer to "Is filebased sync for Firefox possible?"! Because in a pc / smartphone scenario those apps cant work then with each others directories, thanks!

  • Will check this out, thanks!

  • Thanks!

    Must admit .... I realise now I am tweaking something I got used to, but going back to why and all ... because I do use Floccus icw my own NextCloud instance. But mainly for long-term-archival-avalability and for laptop devices, because Floccus doesnt sync Firefox Android. So from mobile its this:

    • Firefox Android add a bookmark
    • Sync Firefox Android with Mozilla
    • Back at laptop, sync with Mozilla.
    • Follow up with Floccus sync on laptop ...

    At the moment:

    • Bookmarks: Floccus sort of
    • History: maybe I dont need it if I bookmark more but still usefull ....
    • Open Tabs: cant live without it
    • Adresses: Turned on, but not a knock out,
    • Payment: Bitwarden data
    • Add-ons: This is very convenient but not a knock out criteria, could just maintain documentation (a list with sources).
    • Passwords: Bitwarden sync

    So, the focus would be syncing Open Tabs and History ....

  • Fair point, so I need to trust this server or control it myself etc.

  • Thanks, it was my intention to backup Librewolf app folder for some time now, so this issue was as good a reason as any to implement that first (using Restic).

    After that I felt save to tinker and also read about ini and profiles: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/understanding-depth-profile-installation

    Luckily both install entries mentioned different default profiles. And when started, Librewolf Profilemanager has the default selected (showing blue/active in my case). So I was able to determine which install was my current one. The other one I deleted from installs.ini and profiles.ini because I am not running multiple instances of Librewolf / Firefox (with each their own set of profiles etc).

    Seems to work now, test it once again after a reboot!

  • Download this ActiveX component to have an extra searchbar, super usefull pinky swear!

    Or was that more like 2006?

  • Afaik there is a lot of federation but not your identity (meaning you cant use one account for the other).

  • Do you mean containers? At least it sounds like it.

  • Or always start with profilemanager. But indeed, also a launch argument.

  • At the moment, running different profiles simultaneously is not possible

    Bullocks. I run 2 or 3 profiles at the same time. For over 2 years now. Just easier now.

  • I use Joplin also, two years now. But fwiw its a database with markdown writed notes. Its not a management solution for a repository with seperate markdown files per note.
