Hi,The problem is there are no rules what goes into which profile. If i add a bookmark as a desktop client, i don't know if it should go into the mobile profile or not. And btw we try to abstract bookmarks away from the user, so managing profiles of bookmarks for different devices is exactly not the direction i want to go. So either this can be determined automatically without user input (i doubt it) or a simple local autojoin list where the user simply has to manually join bookmarks is better in my opinion.

Well, one easy to implement and to understand rule would be to, by default, create a single "default" profile and use that to effectively keep the current behavior of "everything is synced everywhere", unless the user configured it otherwise. I see this as an advanced feature and not something that most users would want to fiddle with (as I said, the issues mostly grow with the number of MUCs). The state would then be synced across clients referring to the same profile name. There is also a niche for client developers who could then use a test client with a distinct bookmarks profile without the need for a separate account. I have had local autojoin lists for a decade in poezio and frankly it is not a very good solution when not many clients support it, other clients abstract the bookmark management away from the user, and nothing is standard. You have the choice between having an unpredictable mix of remote bookmarks and local autojoins, or entirely disable remote bookmarks for the sake of sanity, which is not good either. Cheers, Mathieu
