- Rated 1 out of 5by bgsf, 4 years agoGreat concept and pretty interface.
Sadly, it deleted bookmarks during sync. Even deleted bookmarks on the SOURCE machine in a 1-way sync. The developer doesn't think that's important. Oh well.Developer response
posted 4 years agoThe full story here is, floccus removes duplicate bookmarks with the same URL per folder. It is my belief that a majority of people do not intend to keep multiple instances of the same URL in the same folder. If you disagree, you may convince me over here: https://github.com/marcelklehr/floccus/issues/797 - Rated 1 out of 5by Subnet_Masked, 4 years agoNot working with Nextcloud at all, trying to sync my bookmarks is just a mess and I ended up losing all of my bookmarks... Not good.

posted 4 years agoI'm really sorry for the troubles due to the recent faulty update. I've taken steps to ensure this will not happen again! - Rated 1 out of 5by origami_spoon, 4 years agoBe extremely careful with this add-on. It worked great for about a week. However, when I woke up this morning, ALL of my bookmarks have been permanently deleted (was using this with Nextcloud). Folder structure was preserved but all bookmarks are just gone.
Thankfully, I have backups of all my bookmarks across the machines I was using this on. Will only have permanently lost a few things that I can recover.
If you really must use this add-on, make sure you BACKUP everything and make periodic local backups. I have no idea why it did this, there is almost no logging either in the floccus add-on or on Nextcloud. The documentation and support for this is pretty poor (though I do understand that it is maintained mostly by one person). I would highly recommend using something else, since this type of error is completely unacceptable for an app like this.
Maybe it works better if you self host or use only local options? I don't care to risk it again at this point. - Rated 1 out of 5by MIK, 4 years agoWorked for a few weeks. Then after a Nextcloud update all bookmarks were gone.

posted 4 years agoThank you for your feedback! I'm sorry for the bad experience, you may want to try the latest release which fixes a number of bugs. - Rated 5 out of 5by leonardoql, 4 years agoNow I often use chrome and Android Firefox, but the two bookmarks and other data can not be synchronized, and the current Android Firefox can install a considerable part of the extension plug-in, after a friend recommended that I install flocus, but still can not easily achieve chrome and Android Firefox bookmark synchronization, because I must often open the computer Firefox, to synchronize data.Could you please adapt flocus to the Android Firefox extension plug-in so that Android Firefox can successfully install flocus so that more users can sync their data?

posted 4 years agoYes! This is planned, once Firefox for Android supports all features that floccus needs to work :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16282503, 4 years agoBon module afin de sauvegarder mes marques pages en local plutôt que par mozilla

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15616741, 4 years agoExcellent addon, much improved from its earlier incarnations. I use it with nextcloud and I have not used any other bookmarks sync tool since switching to this.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13465905, 4 years agoAddon installation on Firefox works and login into Nextcloud works as well ... on NC "Bookmarks" is installed and works ... Floccus says sync worked all fine but nothing was synced
Update 14.10.2020: tried again for 2 hours to get it to work - no chance. Heaps of cryptic error messages but I'm ending with messed up bookmarks and have to revert to backup ... - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14320726, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12500267, 5 years ago我终于可以在Linux的Firefox和Windows的chrome之间方便的同步收藏夹了!这太神奇了!
配合坚果云或者nextcloud使用起来简直太有效率了,非常感谢开发者!爱你!
I can finally easily sync favorites between Firefox for Linux and Chrome for Windows! This is amazing!
It's so efficient with jianguoyun or nextcloud, thanks to the developers! Love you! - Rated 3 out of 5by sne, 5 years agoWell, it sure syncs the actual bookmarks but not the tags.
Not sure if this is intended or a bug, but what good is a bookmark, if I cant find it, since the tags are missing?Developer response
posted 5 years agoHello, thanks for your feedback. This is a known issue. The problem is that Firefox doesn't let addons access tag data. See https://github.com/marcelklehr/floccus/issues/28 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13343703, 5 years ago
