Yes. Because I have too many devices. Firefox sync is easy except that I have to reconfigure settings for each add-on.

Does Chrome sync addon data? I am getting a bit annoyed by the fact that Firefox does not, but actually I don't remember if Chrome ever did this.

It's not a question of the browser, it's the addon. There are separete APIs for local and synced storage (but same interface). Both browsers use the same main api (web extension).

I'm pretty sure I've seen some FF addons have an option to sync their setting via FF Sync.
