- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Sans Undertale, 5 jierren lynWhile my preferred Feed Reader on Desktop is the excellent FeedBro browser extension, I've been in the market for a decent way to keep feeds synced across multiple devices. I do enjoy using different feed readers on Mobile and Desktop, yes, but the drawback is that I have to manually mark read something on my phone after reading it on my Desktop and visa-versa.
This almost solves my problem. Feeds that I subscribe to are indeed synced across all my devices running Firefox (because they're saved as bookmarks), but there's one fatal flaw that keeps me from dumping FeedBro in favor of this, and I realize it's not something that can be resolved easily due to the limitations of being a browser extension. Simply put, if I subscribe to a feed on one device, it will only update on that device. I can access the feed from my other devices, but it will only refresh the feed on the device that it originated from.
I still give it four star because it DOES sync on technicality, but that's all it has going for it. In general, I find FeedBro to be the more feature rich (and less permission heavy) alternative at the cost of only having my feeds on one local device at a time.
Edit: Browsing the Git-Hub for this extension, I found this: https://github.com/nt1m/livemarks/issues/22 to be a fascinating read. A ongoing journal of past (failed) attempts to make proper Livemark Sync work across multiple devices. At present, the issue is still open, but not updated since 2019. This will be a fascinating development to watch over time, but I doubt there will be a solution soon unless Mozilla were to completely revise how Bookmarks are saved (or better yet, offer their OWN take on integrated RSS feeds in the Firefox Browser again after all these years). - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch aiteann, 5 jierren lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Dypsis, 5 jierren lynIt doesn't auto update anymore. I have to reload Live Bookmarks manually.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Aronshade, 5 jierren lynThis is a necessity for RSS feeds! I use it for webcomics, music stations, even wordpress and twitter updates.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch SaladGoat, 5 jierren lynThis was a really good extension before, but only got better with the addition of the ability to open all unread pages. Excellent job!
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 16813626, 5 jierren lynWell, after overcoming my own ignorance, I must say that this is the perfect replacement for Firefox's live bookmarks. Furthermore, the support is outstanding. Just remember, Livemarks creates a bookmark folder for any given rss feed. Just drag that folder to your bookmark toolbar and, voila, live bookmarks lives again. This add-on allowed me to update my Firefox 60 to Firefox 78 and retain the functionality that I wanted. Can't say enough.

Presque parfait, fonctionne à peu près comme l'ancien lecteur de flux de Firefox. Seul reproche : les icônes ne sont pas personnalisables.
Almost perfect, works roughly as the previously existing Firefox RSS reader. Little nitpick: I would like to be able to have the website icon as the folder image (but does Firefox allows that?) and have the icons change instead of an added checkmark (which is not as visible as the yellow RSS icon turning gray) - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 14852363, 6 jierren lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 14593595, 6 jierren lynThis is just what I was looking for - thank you! :)

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Sunsprite, 6 jierren lynI would love to try this, but I am not psychic. WHERE are the directions? How do I use it to clean my bookmarks of dead links?
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch dr_white, 6 jierren lynI am sitting here stunned right now. I have been holding onto a v.56 fork of FF for years now solely because of Liveclick, the legendary livemarks enhancement addon that was sadly abandoned when it seemed RSS folder functionality had been made impossible in "Chromefox". And now here I am looking at the impossible on my bookmarks bar. I would swear I've read the name Tim Nguyen associated with addons in the past, too. In any case I can't express my appreciation for this breakthrough enough and I can only hope that Mozilla doesn't somehow wreck this feature YET AGAIN. Obviously what I and many other newsfeed junkies would love to see next is as much of Liveclick's power as possible added to this new extension. Being able to have the titles of unread articles shown in boldface was a godsend, with a configurable timer that would mark them as read after a certain number of seconds! I'm guessing its probably either very difficult or not even within reach, however, considering the lack of flexibility in anything with Chromium DNA. Ah, the days when it was all about empowering the user...how I want to see those times return :)
Suggestions that hopefully might be possible to implement without too much trouble:
* Option to keep FF from shortening titles of articles. I know FF has always had a stupid arbitrary limit to the length of titles on the bookmarks toolbar but I can't find a solution like Place's Full Titles any longer.
* Either a way to support the syncing of Livemarks to our FF account bookmarks or an export/import function just for Livemarks. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Aquaris, 6 jierren lyn

(update: SOLVED :-) it was the use of CCleaner that cancels some sqlite archives in Firefox. Thanks to the developers of this extension)Antwurd ûntwikkeler
6 jierren lyn pleatstHey! We have had some other person complain about this on github: https://github.com/nt1m/livemarks/issues/263.
Make sure you aren't using CCleaner. Otherwise maybe open a new issue on github, so we can more easily follow up. Thanks - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 12156554, 6 jierren lyn
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Fredisland, 6 jierren lynAt last a MUST HAVE for feeds ! Would it be also possible to add an option to mark ALL feeds as READ without opeing ithem. Thank you for this absolute great work.
