Hi guys How can I backup bookmarks in mull (preferably to a file) so I can restore them in another Firefox based browser?

Search for some addon using “desktop view” on addons.mozilla.org

I thought you wrote “null” for a second. Extremely fast backup target.

dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/null

Portal of nothingness

Just wait until you find out about

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null

You can actually max out a CPU core doing this. If you run it once for each core concurrently you can get a poor mans stress test.

No worries honest mistake their names are really similar, haha. Check it out its on android its like a hardened Firefox

That make it worse, mullvad also hardened firefox (actually based on tor browser, which also hardened firefox)

Unless you want to add in your firefox login info to mull best option would be adding each bookmark to a spreadsheet and ~ manually adding each bookmark to your new browser ~

Edit: got a case of 2am brain over here and forgot an easier way. After saving the spreadsheet make sure its formatted correctly as hyperlinks that way you can export the spreadsheet as an HTML file. Depending on what desktop browser you can then import the HTML file in your bookmark manager

You sure there is no way to at least copy them at once

Yeah you can select multiple bookmarks on mull and “copy to clipboard” then paste them into whatever spreadsheet editor you want if that’s what you meant? You can then format the links correctly on something like Calc or excel. I never personally tried extensions but that might be another route you can take. Sorry for all of the downvotes the privacy community isn’t always this hostile to a simple question. Hope you have a good one
