Bookmark Sync is not syncing

Unfortunately back to Chrome while bookmarks sync gets sorted out.
Simply too important to my workflow. (work mac , home mac, iPhone, iPad) to do without.

New version of Brave pretends to fix the issue, but it most definitely does not. I went into brave://flags to re-enable sync and relaunched. There was an immediate crash and after manually editing the config file to switch off sync, I managed to get back in. Unfortunately all my open tabs were gone.

Be warned that this update does not fix the sync issues.

New release has not fixed the issues. I went into brave://flags to re-enable sync and relaunched, there was an immediate crash and all tabs are gone after restoring.

Is there any update on when this issue is going to be fixed?

New release and same issue:

Release Notes V1.4.96

  • No audio output in Google Meet (blocked by autoplay).(#4621)
  • Application crashes when calculating the winning page classification category.(#7866)
  • Buttons on top tiles removed message needs padding.(#8282)

  • Upgrade from Chromium 80.0.3987.122 to Chromium 80.0.3987.132.(#8499)

I checked the latest release V1.7.98 and it is a bit better, but still broken.

Instead of crashing the browser immediately, it stays open for maybe a minute before crashing. My guess is that it starts to sync and then crashes out.
