Has anyone successfully self-hosted Firefox Sync?

I use around 10 browser profiles, each of which has its own set of bookmarks, plugins, self-enforced rules, etc. I want to synchronise browsing history, bookmarks, plugins using a single account. They are managed with a dedicated Firefox account, but I was wondering if I can self host accounts so that I can synchronise stuff over my VPN, and I don't have to do mail verification every time I create a new profile. But I can't find much on how online.

I know syncserver-rs but that is not enough. The accounts are still registered with Mozilla's server.

NEW RULE: added on an appropriate day
  • I'm considering setting up my own instance with an instance-wide ban on all political contents... It's annoying to deal with those political posts with super vague title so it bypasses the keyword filter.

  • Femboy rule
  • The instruction said that I should use it every week, and the change was definitely there. I now have almost no visible hair, and I use it every two weeks to keep it at that state.

  • Apex Legends is taking away its support for the Steam Deck and Linux
  • The server already determines if a shot's valid or not though. Once a client receives information on where the enemy is at, then the client can send message to the server that they are shooting exactly at that location.

  • Do you use TPM ?
  • I wouldn't say using TPM compromises your privacy or security. It can act as an additional layer of protection where your PC boots only when your basic settings are unaltered. You can still have FDE with password and TPM if TPM sniffing is your concern.

    Still, I don't use it because I like my stuff accessible and not locked when I dual boot.

  • Not until I read the docs
  • You need to package all dynamically linked executables because NixOS disables them by design. It's to prevent two programs not working because they depend on different versions of a single library. But it's not helpful when you have a program you need to run, and you need it real soon.

    In terms of whether Factorio runs or not, it does run. You have to add that configuration though.

    Still, if you are familiar with Linux and don't usually get that "I need a program running ASAP" situations, it is a great OS to learn. I can recommend them.

  • Not until I read the docs

    Add this to your home-manager let f = pkgs.factorio.override { username = "<Your Username>"; token = "<Token>"; versionsJson = ./factorio.json; }; in { home-manager.users."<Your Username>".home.packages = [ f ]; }; In factorio.json { "x86_64-linux": { "alpha": { "stable": { "name": "factorio-space-age_linux_2.0.7.tar.xz", "needsAuth": true, "sha256": "1zvk1skkm37kyikq4l1q285l8zhxc6lqvs1x2y2ccxwd4cdm6r96", "tarDirectory": "x64", "url": "https://factorio.com/get-download/2.0.7/expansion/linux64", "version": "2.0.7" } } } } To get your Factorio working.
