Sync server address change

Unread post by thosrtanner » 2018-04-21, 10:25

I am confused. According to the latest notice, the sync server should be at palemoon.org and 'most of you will be already migrated to the new address. but if you are using an old...'

Well, I upgraded to 27.9. And I went and checked my about:config. And it said palemoon.net

I have a laptop running 27.8.3 on which I'd forgotten to set up sync. There was nothing in about:config about the sync server. So I set it up and then checked. And lo and behold. It had decided to use palemoon.net as well.

So have I misread the notice and just updated my configuration incorrectly. Or have I read it correctly but maybe a lot of people should be checking?

Even if you are on the latest version of the browser and use sync, it is recommended that you check and verify that you have he correct address set, or your Sync may stop working very soon.
