  • Is there a possibility that it’s an issue with the desktop Firefox? Maybe it’s sending “garbage” to Sync due to profile corruption, etc. The passwords in your desktop Firefox work fine? Maybe try clearing its cache, if you haven’t already, or go nuclear by creating a new profile, then set it up as you want, and adding your passwords, then using that new profile to see if you can sync your passwords, etc. Sorry, but other than that drastic action, I’m out of ideas.

    One other thing, do your browser history and bookmarks sync?


  • Ouch, that’s not good.

    Have you tried force stopping and deleting the cache in Firefox for Android? Maybe you might need to clear its data and reinstall Firefox for Android again, which might force Sync to work. It’s possible your profile is corrupted. You might well lose some settings if Sync doesn’t repopulate, but it seems that you’ve already lost stuff due to Sync not working.











  • Thanks, but I know of the app. However, I’m really doing this to check if Firefox for Android has a problem with Lemmy or not. It’s not really making it that difficult to navigate Lemmy, just a little harder. I’ve checked with Vivaldi’s Android browser, and the issue isn’t there. So it seems to be Firefox specific.

    Anyway, I’d rather not have to install an app if I can get away with not doing so.

    Still, thanks for the suggestion. Even if I don’t want the app, others might well be interested who don’t know about it.
