Can Chrome Sync or Firefox Sync be trusted with sensitive data?
6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Aug 2023

There are solutions external to the browsers that work pretty well and where you have control on your data :
Floccus for bookmarks (https://floccus.org/) : it works also on mobile devices : a great plus ! You need only a webdav server (or a Nextcloud account), I use Dave (https://github.com/micromata/dave)
Vaultwarden for the passwords (https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden)
A huge advantage of this solution is that you can have synchronization also between different browsers and on mobile devices.
Any self-hosted alternative to Obsidian and/or Obsidian Sync?
