- by Firefox user 14647243, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5Good concept to fill the big gap in cross browser bookmark synchronization, but fails to deliver a reliable solution at this time.
More often than not, the saving of a single bookmark triggers a catastrophic failure that requires a full reimport of all bookmarks - erasing whatever it was that had just been saved.
If you're going to try this service out, be sure you've backed up your bookmarks locally through the basic Firefox process first. - by Firefox user 14511390, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5similar one works fine with chrome, but this one has issue with firefox 64.0 on Ubuntu 18.04, the setup page showed and disappeared quickly, no way for me to enter encryption password.

posted 3 years agoHi there, another user with similar issues reported the following fix:
"I was recently having this issue on my laptop with Ubuntu 18.04, with this extension and bitwarden. after a little digging it seems it was a bug with gnome-shell and password fields. after updating packages and rebooting the problem is gone. sorry I don't have the links handy at the moment but try updating, close firefox and reboot."
