Elliot Kirk Like several others here, I do not sign in to browsers (I use both Edge Dev and Firefox) mostly for privacy concerns. My two primary computers are both Surface devices and usually travel with me. One is work, one is personal. There is some, but not much overlap between the bookmarks on them. If I do want a bookmark or set of them transferred to the other I generally just email myself the link.
When I set up a new computer or a different browser on the same computer, I export the bookmarks and import them into the new browser.
I frankly would welcome the convenience of sharing passwords, bookmarks, collections, etc., between devices but am simply not willing to trust that this information is safe sent elsewhere.
