Also the article doesnt have any critical question how BlueSky is a "mediated" network instead of decentralised ...

Its not like Ikea standardised that for use in dozens of cabinets ....

Also lions

Microsoft owns ChatGPT ... 🤔🙈

I do too, cinematic, costumes, storylines, real quality.

Its just not Asimov anymore or the same universe as the foundation books. Once accepting the TV series isnt 'canon' but stand alone, I enjoyed it more.

Star Wars: Andor ...

Its giving me tremors ....

Just a read before one invest time in w3w .... https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/02/endless-downward-spiral-is-this-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-what3words/

I also like to measure in jetwing money ... This is like half a jetwing.

Anyone else having mixed feelings about being happy it crashes the moon? (instead of hoping our companion will be left alone) ....

Wont work if its PC Smartphone combo

Shameless plug about my own lemmy post about filebased FF sync: https://lemmy.ml/post/27254722

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.

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

Or was that more like 2006?

Rather the exeption then rule, but it can be done if instances add it. For example social.edu.nl for all vocational and higher education in NL uses OpenConext to let you log in with your institution account.

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