Extension is not compatible with the last Brave versions (1.2.x)

[LaurentOngaro]

The brave browser team has recently changed the folder structure of their bookmarks.

This is a breaking change that make all sync extensions unworkable.

As the others, xbrowsersync is not working anymore and the sync process seems to run in an infinite loop after launched

The Brave team has been informed of this issue by several users, but I'm not sure they will revert the changes.

Perhaps, xbrowsersync could make a fix for that, and become the FIRST sync extension compatible with the new versions of brave browser

Hi @LaurentOngaro, since xBrowserSync does not officially support Brave yet it's not a separate issue to be tracked, you can track implementation progress here.

However, unfortunately until Brave have implemented a workable solution I can't implemented support in xBrowserSync so I'll keep an eye here and hopefully they'll come up with a way forward that keeps everyone happy.

Hi @nero120 , thanks for your so quick answer.
I understand the xBrowserSync team's choice, and I disagree with those made by the Brave team (breaking backward compatibility).
I hope they will fix this issue because Brave is really good on many points.
If not, Vivaldi will be my alternative.

This response from the big dog tells me they will sort it... 😉
