Firefox has lost a series of bookmarks. Not sure if it is a problem with Sync.
I routinely use Firefox on my Mac computer. A bunch of bookmarks that I used often have gone missing. These were put in a few months ago. The older bookmarks and the newer bookmarks are all there. I do not know if this is an issue with Sync. I would really like those bookmarks back.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync (temporarily) while performing maintenance/repair efforts to the places.sqlite database.
You can check the backups in the bookmarkbackups folder.
- Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup
Note that the file name includes a total item count.
- bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash>.json
