Describe the Bug

Hello,

I just want to synchronize my Google Chrome bookmarks in Kiwi Browser under Android with floccus like everyone, but it didn't work.

1 I followed the procedure described here for Google Drive about my Google Chrome bookmarks on PC
-> https://floccus.org/guides
2 Then I exported the profit and imported it into Kiwi Browser on Android
3 The synchronization failed both on Google Chrome and Kiwi Browser
4 The synchronization remains disabled on Kiwi Browser

So, I would like to know if I did the synchronization procedure incorrectly in floccus please ?

Thank you for your help

Hello 👋

Thank you for taking the time to open this issue with floccus. I know it's frustrating when software
causes problems. You have made the right choice to come here and open an issue to make sure your problem gets looked at
and if possible solved.
I'm Marcel and I created floccus a few years ago, maintaining it ever since. I currently work for Nextcloud
which leaves me with less time for side projects like this one than I used to have.
I still try to answer all issues and if possible fix all bugs here, but it sometimes takes a while until I get to it.
Until then, please be patient.
Note also that GitHub is a place where people meet to make software better together. Nobody here is under any obligation
to help you, solve your problems or deliver on any expectations or demands you may have, but if enough people come together we can
collaborate to make this software better. For everyone.
Thus, if you can, you could also have a look at other issues to see whether you can help other people with your knowledge
and experience. If you have coding experience it would also be awesome if you could step up to dive into the code and
try to fix the odd bug yourself. Everyone will be thankful for extra helping hands!
To continue the development and maintenance of this project in a sustainable way it is expected that you donate to the project when opening a ticket,
if you're not a donor already. You can find donation options at https://floccus.org/donate/. Thank you!

One last word: If you feel, at any point, like you need to vent, this is not the place for it; you can go to the Nextcloud forum,
to twitter or somewhere else. But this is a technical issue tracker, so please make sure to
focus on the tech and keep your opinions to yourself.

I look forward to working with you on this issue
Cheers 💙

Hey @SunSea88
So, it seems like the bookmarks file on Google Drive is currently empty or was somehow emptied, not sure how that might have happened. But you can try the following:

1. Force Sync up in Google Chrome, to populate your Google Drive file with bookmarks again
2. In Kiwi, go to settings and enable auto-sync for the profile (profiles are automatically disabled after having been imported)
