I'm using floccus in conjunction with my nextcloud, and it just works. I use it on Linux, Android and Windows. The upside compared to e.g. Firefox sync is that my data is in my own hands, and no one is checking how often I visit my bookmarks. Setup is as easy as it gets, and after that I can just forget about it. Thank you!
POX added Floccus as alternative to LinkStash Bookmark Manager

I like Floccus very much. Since at least 2 years it runs stable at home and syncs all my bookmarks across my several PCs and Laptops to and from my local WEBDAV server. I use Floccus on Linux and Windows, both. I never had any issues.
If you are looking for a reliable tool to sync your bookmarks and open tabs across your devices - go with Floccus and please consider donating to support the author.
I love foss, and will keep using floccus too, but...
I won't, in good consience recommend it unless you use some other way of backup as well (3 2 1 rule) Again, love the software and am greatful it exists, but not my experience with it. Even if it were paid non-foss software, I can see how the above bugs could've occured. but since it is foss I can't be mad at it, just blame my bad luck. (not that I use any paid software)
This is the data loss bug https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/1454 I had.

I have been using this plugin for years now, in various browsers across different devices. I have never had any problems with it, it has always worked fine. First I synchronized my bookmarks on my HiDrive via Webdav. Meanwhile it runs via Google Drive.
For data protection reasons, end-to-end encryption should always be activated, if available for the respective connection type. For security reasons, you should of course also regularly create an offline backup of your bookmarks. Just in case.
I like Floccus and have a suggestion, maybe I will do this: create a desktop or web application for addon-unsupported browsers like qutebrowser.
Don't have alternatives. Use Floccus + iCloud Bookmarks to sync all 9 Browsers (on Windows and Android) + Safari (on macOS and iOS)
The one and only privately (!) bookmarks sync program.
