My bookmarks aren't syncing to Firefox for Android with Firefox 54

I have just set up sync between my desktop (Ubuntu 16.04, Firefox 54.0) and my phone (Android 6.0.1, Firefox 54.0.1).

On the phone, I can see the tabs opened on the desktop but I can't find the bookmarks. Maybe I just missed them in the UI.

From what I have read Firefox previous to v54 had troubles to sync lots of bookmarks. However, it's supposed t be fixed in v54. I have 630 bookmarks. I have installed the "About Sync" extension as recommended on a similar question but it's hard to figure out what to do.

Any idea ?

Arf, I found the synced bookmarks : they were in the bookmark menu on my phone but under the (translated from French) name "Computer bookmarks". I did not expected them here because my desktop computer is named "Home" in sync so having something named "Home bookmarks" would have make much more sense.

So good news, it works ! However, the UI could be better.

For some reasons, mozilla support asks me to start a new question when I create an account but really I wanted to answer here.

I find the support interface a bit hard to use because it couldn't find this question while writing my message and I can't edit the question.
