This is why i don't use Chrome. Enough of my life is in google's hands. I believe they are already too big.

I wish for a more open smartphone ecosystem and better tools for privacy.

I use Chrome, but I don't exclusively rely on it. I always have both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox installed on my systems/devices.

Can I ask if there's a good way to keep bookmarks synced between Chrome and Firefox? I know about Xmarks[1] but I'm just curious if there's another way that doesn't involve storing my bookmarks on a third party.

You are looking to sync bookmarks through a server you host yourself? Any other option involves a 3rd party, no?

If you don't care about sync / mobile then just use a local .html file. Maybe this could be Dropbox'd around but there's that 3rd party problem!

Sure, just a way to keep bookmarks synced when I might switch systems/browsers without having to manually export-import them every time.
