Docker compose and other useful files for selfhosting of Firefox sync server - GitHub - jeena/fxsync-docker: Docker compose and other useful files for selfhosting of Firefox sync server

This repository is holding a working docker-compose setup for documentation pourpuses because syncstorage-rs’s documentation is not very good to explain how to self host the new rust syncserver.

With help of it you can self host the new Firefox sync server, which is written in Rust and replaces the old python one, which is deprecated.

    Just wanted to say thanks @jeena@jemmy.jeena.net for calling it fxsync and not ffsync, I’m glad there’s still at least one person out there who knows what the proper abbreviation for Firefox should be!

    I’ve been looking for this just yesterday but apparently all sync info is end to end encrypted anyways and Mozilla has no access to the synchronized data? Is there a reason to self host this but just for the principle of it?

      If you have multiple firefox profiles, then you have to create an sync account for each one if you want to sync. Not a good idea if you have 5 profiles, some of them using a main email (like a corp or school) that won’t be around forever.

      Being able to sync multiple profiles with only one account is convenient for me.
