I would really love to use Firefox on all my devices at ease so I do not need to install other browser But the thing is, bookmark separation always become the issue Hopefully someone can solve my problem with it

First, my Firefox on PC have hundreds of bookmarks so I do not want to clutter my phone with it Second, sometimes I bookmark a page on my phone because I want to open it later on PC In addition (not really an issue, but will be awesome if it can be in all-in-one place too), I have 2 Firefox account both for work and private one. Is it possible to combine them but still a separate thing? Reason is the same, I do not want to clutter my work PC with hundreds of bookmarks

So what I want is, is it possible to have different set of bookmark for PC and Mobile? Like I do not need my PC bookmark list on my mobile but still able to access them all on PC

Firefox is still my main one, but right now I use like 2 additional browsers to able cleanly maintain that and access them all when I am at home. Firefox for my main private PC, Chrome for mobile, and Edge if I want to open my work bookmarks (import from Firefox)

No. You can make folders in the bookmarks. But as for using sync, it's an all or nothing choice.

If you want a different set of bookmarks on each device - don't synchronize them on the same Firefox Account! And if you want to use Sync to synchronize other Firefox data, like Logins & Passwords, deselect Bookmarks from the Sync Settings on both devices to disable that feature in Sync.

No, not possible to have two separate sets of bookmarks on a device with one Firefox Profile. Nor is it possible to "share" bookmarks between 2 different Firefox Accounts.

As far as using two different browsers to maintain separation between work and private, that really isn't necessary. You could have two separate Profiles on each computer, and even have them running at the same time, if you so wish. And since Sync works at the Profile level, 2 separate Sync accounts would work fine. Hell, in past years I was running 3 different Sync accounts on one PC so I could test Sync for a specific issue that I was trying to figure out. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data
