looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don’t run a complaint browser ( cough…firefox )

here is an article in hacker news since i’m sure they can explain this to you better than i.

and also some github docs

Wait. Sync offers file storage? I thought it was just to sync up your Firefox sessions across multiple devices.

Or am I confusing services with similar names?

I think they’re referring to the storage service at sync.com, not Firefox Sync.

Correct

How do you like it? Would you prefer it over dropbox, or not really?

I prefer it to drop box, it’s a better service and I believe not owned by Google like drop box it

Gawd damn, I didn’t know Google acquired Dropbox in 2010. Ok. Time to move.

But what makes Sync a better service? A better UI?

I’ve been migrating to sync from Dropbox after hearing too many reports of Dropbox scanning user content for things they deem objectionable. I like the end to end encryption, but I have found the mobile experience on iOS to be lacking. It seems to have trouble integrating with Files and uploading files directly via the iOS share menu. Annoying but not a dealbreaker.
