Floccus version 5.6.0 has been released, providing users with the ability to privately sync their bookmarks across various devices and browsers. Unlike standard bookmark managers that require a new interface for bookmark organization, Floccus integrates seamlessly with the native features of your web browser, allowing for a hassle-free experience when managing bookmarks.
To utilize Floccus for bookmark synchronization, users must connect to a syncing server that serves as a mediator for all devices. Floccus supports multiple options for this, including Google Drive for convenience and privacy-focused users can opt to encrypt their bookmarks. Additionally, WebDAV is available, which is compatible with many cloud storage services.
One of the most user-friendly methods to sync bookmarks is through Nextcloud Bookmarks. Nextcloud is an open-source cloud collaboration platform that can be self-hosted or used as a service. By installing the Bookmarks app on Nextcloud, users can set up Floccus to manage bookmarks remotely, facilitating access from anywhere, including public locations like internet cafés.
Key Features of Floccus:
- Synchronizes native browser bookmarks directly.
- Supports syncing via Nextcloud Bookmarks, Google Drive, Git servers (such as GitHub, GitLab, Gitea), or WebDAV-compatible services.
- Compatible with any browser that supports web extensions, including Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave, and Vivaldi.
- Offers an Android app for bookmark access on mobile devices.
- Allows for the creation of multiple sync profiles, control over sync strategies (uni- or bidirectional), sync intervals, and the choice of synced folders.
- Provides a simple way to export configuration settings.
- Ensures secure credential management with an encryption passphrase.
Overall, Floccus is an effective tool for users seeking a straightforward way to manage and sync bookmarks without the complications of a dedicated interface, making it ideal for those who prioritize privacy and ease of use.
In addition to the features mentioned, users can also benefit from resources and guides on exporting or importing bookmarks between different browsers, enhancing their overall bookmarking experience
