Hi Team,

The sync function like sh!t.

I install with apt-get, download source, or install using snap,

When I logged my account. click sync, data does not sync.

Waste my time a day to find the resolution.

I click sync in the icon right top bar, or in settings sync, it loads 3 seconds then stop, and data no sync.

It is Ubuntu first time installation.

Best regards, Manh

You can open about:sync-log via the location bar to see if recent Sync logs are available. You can upload the file to a website if you can't post the content of the file in a reply.
