Can anyone recommend a way to share bookmarks between Firefox and Chrome across multiple devices? (lemm.ee)

I'm using Firefox more as my first choice, but I can't get away from Chrome completely because of work. I still consider my Chrome bookmarks the "master" and occasionally sync them to Firefox. I would like to be able to bookmark something while in Firefox and then have it available from my other devices using either browser. Is there a way to have my bookmarks stored in a common location, like Google Drive, and accessed from either browser? I tried Floccus with Google Drive as the location but I can't get it to work.

I use Raindrop.io. https://raindrop.io

There are phone apps and browser plugins. I use the free version and set my home page and new tab page to the favorites folder.

I use multiple browsers for work plus an iPad and phone. This allows bookmarks anywhere. It’s great.

Edit: fix typo.

Checking this out. I'm a Diigo user but kinda seems like it's dying and the app is no longer stable on android so looking for an out. Looking for something that will let me import my giant diigo library though.

There is an import feature and you can have unlimited bookmarks. I believe the free version only allows one level of folders vs folders inside folders.

I really only use it for managing bookmarks across all my browsers and devices. I haven’t found anything better (I’ve looked) and don’t use any of the advanced features like file storage etc.

Let me know how it works out. Like anything it requires finding the right setup for you but between plugins and mobile app … or just setting a home page. It’s great.
