Alright, seriously considering jumping ship to librewolf now. As someone relying on a Mozilla account to store and sync passwords is it still available in librewolf?
Not who you’re asking, but I’ll answer nevertheless.
I’ve jumped from vanilla Firefox, to Librewolf, and now to Floorp. I’ve also played a bit with Zen. In all of them (except Zen, which I didn’t go to the process of connecting my Mozilla account), my Mozilla account connected and synced just fine.
I also no longer use vanilla Firefox mobile, but moved on to Mull. I am able to sync my stuff from Floorp to Mull and back without much trouble.
EDIT:
Thanks to a couple of people, I was informed that Mull is now unmaintained, and that IronFox took its mantle. I’ve switched to it just earlier now, and syncing works there too!
Thanks for the head’s up. I’ve switched to IronFox just earlier.
Getting it into my phone wasn’t as straightforward as I expected. I first failed to find it on Fdroid. Then I tried toinstall it via Obtanium, but somehow failed. A bit of more research gave me Fdroid repository link that allowed me to finally install it. Everything after that is a breeze though.
Moving my collections from Mull to IronFox had to be be done manually though (or maybe I just didn’t find out a better way to do it), but it wasn’t at all painful.
Mull is no longer being maintained. IronFox seems to be the go to for mobile now and is what I use. I don’t use syncing so I can’t say for sure, but it does appear to have a sync setup in its settings.
I also bookmarked the Librewolf Flatpak package. I consider to change my browser (Firefox) for the first time in 20 years or so, since its inception. I do not rely on the Mozilla account, so the switch should be easier for me. Passwords should be compatible I assume. In worst case you can export and import passwords.

Sync works, but pay attention to the fact that even if you self host it the authentication is still done on Mozilla’s servers.

Mull is unmaintained. IronFox is the current fork.

Thanks for the head’s up! I’ll take a look at IronFox and see if it fits my existing set-up (syncing from Linux/Windows PC to mobile). Again, thanks!
We really need better names for stuff
