PSA - there are issues with Bookmark Syncing

In the past, several users have complained that bookmarks sync doesn’t work as expected.

SEE:

I’m now adding myself to that list of users.
Let me say first that Obsidian Sync generally works quite well, which makes the bookmarks issue all the more ‘interesting.’

I’ve been using Sync for a year or so and in all that time, my Bookmarks have never synced across devices. Since I primarily use one device, I just put up with the inconvenience. However, over the weekend, I installed Obsidian on a new device and after the first sync, all my bookmarks are gone on all devices.

I think what may be happening is that the bookmarks are synced but the interface doesn’t update. Then if you change the bookmarks at all, it overwrites what was pulled in from Sync with the current visible state.

I got an email telling me “tough, we are working on it” and to reload either before or after…really unclear. This is a CORE plugin screwed up by a PAID service. This feels like the low-hanging fruit

You are telling be to RELOAD over and over again…the equivalent of telling me to reboot by a lazy IT department.

Let me double check this.
