I'd like to recommend you guys add reactions on the first post of this thread if you are for it (there is a sort function based on the number of thumbs up).

[boozedog]

Thanks for the suggestion, have added a thumbs up!

Agreed. I switched to Brave as my default browser on iOS and macOS. I can live without bookmark sync for now, but it is a pretty important feature considering all major browsers offer it. An encrypted sync option via a passphrase would also be great for privacy :)

Thanks for your great work!

+1 this is a must for me to keep in sync across multiple platforms and multiple browsers. I will need this before I can go Brave as my default browser.

Nothing against synchronized between brave platforms but i prefer my bookmarks saved in one database

Xmarks is being discontinued, so this may no longer makes sense

Indeed, Xmarks is gone in less than a month. https://www.ghacks.net/2018/03/31/logmein-to-shut-down-xmarks-on-may-1-2018/

I have moved over to everhelper a while ago now. Works well. Wonder if we will ever see Brave support for it.
