Still seems like there's no first party support for container sync.

  It's definitely a frustrating experience to have to re-assign all of your containers if you happen to reinstall the browser. This should be easily supported by Firefox Sync.

    Or if you happen to run Firefox between multiple devices. It's been a pain maintaining a couple of instances' synced when it comes to containers (again, such a shame). There's an open issue [1], but no resolution yet as it seems. [1] https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/issues/339 https://github.com/mozilla/multi-account-containers/issues/3...

  Sorry about the bad news but sync dev is completely dead. Mozilla is scared of touching that code base. So don't expect any improvements or additions there .

    Though this was true for many years, there is now a team dedicated to sync development. (But there's a big backlog for them to work through!)

      I extrapolated my last year's info (which was true for about 6 years by then)

      Page shot is fantastic btw. No nonsense clipping in Linux (I use onenote on Windows and would love if shots could be exported outside as easily as they are created)

        Do you need to do something through "testpilot" to get this feature? I'm confused if this is a feature or an addon, and how testpilot relates
        • bambamboom 8y ago
          Once you enable testpilot, you can see the experiments. I think the page opens by itself after enabling. Select page shot and click a couple of buttons on different screens.

    But why?

  Firefox Sync is bad in so many ways. A few more settings that don't sync: - Cookie exceptions - New tab page config (Top Sites and everything else that you see on that page) - Certificate exceptions - Personal certificates
