Hello there,

it took a long time to compose this new version, mostly due to other commitments but also because of some unique challenges. If you're up for a bit of testing in order to get an earlier glimpse at the new features of the upcoming floccus version, you're welcome to follow the guide below. I dare say there are some long awaited gems :)

Changes:

  • Improved sync algorithm: better performance when uploading large bookmark trees by using bulk import (my preliminary benchmarks yielded 4000 bookmarks in 7 minutes) -- (this only works when using nextcloud bookmarks v1.1.0)
  • Sync strategy option: You can now choose to sync one way only, e.g. sync from server to client or from client to server (always overriding any changes on the other side)
  • Cancel sync: You can now cancel an in-progress sync run
  • Fix URL normalization: Once and for all, hopefully. We're now following the official WHATWG spec
  • Improved the speed-up option: It should now actually be usable and will soon be turned on by default, if all is well

Installation

Chrome (separate testing installation)

Chrome (direct upgrade; might not always work)

Firefox (separate testing installation; cannot upgrade)

Cheers! 👾
