USE WITH CAUTION. Someone has lost their pinboard bookmarks after installing this plugin. I haven't been able to get to the bottom of it yet. Manage your Pinboard bookmarks with native browser bookmark tools (sidebar, star button, etc.).

Features & Capabilities

Once configured, there will appear a new folder called "Pinboard" in your "Other bookmarks" folder. Containing your existing pinboard bookmarks. If pinboard bookmark is tagged, it'll be in the corresponding subfolder. If there is more than one tag, there will be that many folders with the same bookmark. This denormalisation is unfortunate, but browser bookmarks API does not support tags, so that's the best I could think of.

A new bookmark placed in the "Pinboard" folder will be automatically synced back to Pinboard. Same is true for deleting and updating an existing one. If a new bookmark is in a subfolder, then the Pinboard bookmark will be tagged accordingly. Similarly, moving bookmarks within subfolders of "Pinboard" folder will update pinboard tags.

At the moment, there is no automatic import of new bookmark from Pinboard. To do this manually, disable and re-enable the add-on.

Is Pinboard-sync Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Pinboard-sync requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Medium Access to bookmarks may provide insights into user preferences and interests but generally carries low risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Pinboard-sync may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
