Good day and happy new year,

I would appreciate some details about Firefox Sync policy with logins when it comes to conflicts between different devices.

A practical example: a computer which was being synced asked me to login again, maybe because of a password change, or some problems after updating.

While syncing was not working, some logins had been deleted/updated locally.

In this case are local changes uploaded, do they get overwritten by remote data, or in case of conflict the user is asked to choose? Does Firefox in general automatically choose to keep the most recent changes when merging logins, or not?

Many thanks and regards

In linea di principio la sincronizzazione di un dato in Sync avviene sempre dalla versione più recente a quella meno recente. -> https://support.mozilla.org/it/kb/scegliere-tipi-informazioni-sincronizzare-firefox

Dopodiché è difficile generalizzare perché oltre a Sync nel processo sono coinvolti i singoli siti e le rispettive impostazioni di sicurezza/privacy.
