you reinstall your os/get a new pc.
you type in your password and 2fa code.
your stuff magically syncs and all your favorite extensions are already inatalled and synced (including custom filters in uBO)
I don’t. I prefer writing down my passwords on a little notebook. It’s ironic as hell that a “coded” paper note at my own home is more secure than anything on my computer

I’m vanilla as hell, I just use default uBO and sometimes NoScript. To me, sync offers nothing of value.
(Not OP) I have no beef with Mozilla, love Firefox.
I once accidentally bookmarked some porn instead of opening it into a new tab. It happened on mobile, it happend fast, I barely noticed. It directly synced to all my devices. Even after removing the bookmark itself, Firefox kept suggesting this “last bookmarked page” on all my devices. Annoying if you alone know about it, disastrous if you don’t know who knows about it.
No, because I’m a fucking luddite or something.
Thing is, it’s pointless to me. I don’t need nor want all my devices to have the same configurations, bookmarks and history.

Tbf you can selfhost the sync
Why would I want to do that?
I assumed part of the reason was that you didn’t trust mozilla
No, I just literally have no usecase for sync
