For years I relied on the Sync feature in Seamonkey to keep my bookmarks the
same on several computers.
A couple of years ago, that stopped working for me, so I switched to a
commercial service called Xmarks, which worked just as well, and the fee was
modest.
Last year, Lastpass acquired Xmarks with big plans for folding it into
Lastpass, which I also use for passwords. But yesterday Lastpass made this
announcement:
On May 1, 2018, we will be shutting down Xmarks. Your account will
remain active until then. After this date, your bookmarks should
remain available in any previously accessed browser, but they will no
longer sync and your Xmarks account will be deactivated.
What other options are available for syncing bookmarks in Seamonkey?
I wonder if the "Use own server" option in Xmarks will still function after May
1?
Hard to know -- here's the official announcement, which doesn't invite
questions:
Xmarks update On May 1, 2018, we will be shutting down Xmarks. Your account
will remain active until then. After this date, your bookmarks should remain
available in any previously accessed browser, but they will no longer sync and
your Xmarks account will be deactivated. *There will be no impact to your
LastPass Premium account*. In addition, any remaining balance previously paid
towards Xmarks will be applied as a credit towards your LastPass Premium
account.
At LastPass, we’ve staked our claim in password management, and providing our
community with a high level of password security. After careful consideration
and evaluation, we have decided to discontinue the Xmarks solution so that we
can continue to focus on offering the best possible password vaulting to our
community.
On behalf of the entire LastPass and Xmarks team, we wanted to thank you for your support over the years. If
you have any questions about your account or LastPass credit, please do not hesitate to reach out to
