Unlike Google Chrome's extension syncing, Siphon's addon syncing isn't automatic. Chrome downloads and installs newly synced extensions in the background, whenever you start up the browser. But to sync with Siphon, you have to open up the Siphon window every time and manually install any new addons. It's definitely easier than trying to remember, download, and install a dozen or more addons every time you install Firefox on a new OS, but it's also not as easy as I had hoped.
