Describe the Bug

I am syncing many bookmarks with NextCloud, and the two-way-sync (merge local & cloud) takes quite some time then (10-15 seconds).
The browser plugin seems to start the sync after each change like renaming a single bookmark, that is kinda new behaviour for me and I am not used to it, don't know since which version the plugin does this.

But the problem with this is, when I change one bookmark and I ignore that the sync is running, and I keep changing other bookmarks, the changes after the sync has started will be reverted due to the sync. And that is really stupid, because
a) I have to wait and wait and wait to manage the bookmarks (and I don't want to stop syncing during the changes, the addon shall support me and not define how I have to do my work)
b) the progress icon for the sync is not soo different comapred to the normal one so I really have to look exactly at it to see if a sync is in progress

Expected Behavior

I do not want to lose my new changes made after the sync has started.

To Reproduce

  • Many bookmarks to sync, so sync takes a couple of time
  • Change a single bookmark (A)
  • Ensure syncing starts (Merge local & cload)
  • Change another bookmark (B)
  • Wait till syncing has finished
  • B should now be reverted to its earlier state

Debug log provided

  • I have provided a debug log file
