Describe the Bug
Sync starts to work from one or two browsers then when trying add the third, or the same set of browsers on another machine I get the message below and it won't sync again across any of the browsers (get's stuck with this message):
This profile will be synced soon. We're either waiting for other devices of yours, or other profiles on this device, to finish syncing.
Expected Behavior
Sync to work across all browsers
To Reproduce
I downloaded the extensions from the respective addon websites for each browser, was able to authenticate to my local webdav server and I can see the files being copied there (bookmarks.xbel,bookmarks.xbel.lock). Just selected the toolbar folder as the sync folder for each browser and left all other options as default.

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 and have been 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!
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 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!
So, bookmarks.xbel.lock should be deleted after each sync run, so other clients know that it's ok to do their sync. Could you provide some logs for the sync run that does go through? It seems that this one doesn't delete the lock file, then.
Thanks for your help, looks like I got it working using another webdav docker package. Will test further and let you know if there are any issues.
