Is the sync server down?

I discovered that Vivaldi was not syncing. I have tried logging out and restarting the browser, but I just get the message on the SYNC screen in Settings, "Initialising sync...".

Are there any files I can delete or anything before I do an uninstall and reinstall?

Vivaldi 6.5.3206.55 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
Windows 10 Home 22H2

Still down.

The title is all I'm seeing in mobile when I try to sync my Android 12 install (version 5.6.2868) with my windows desktop version (5.7.2921). On windows I see "download: network error" & "upload: not synced". My Internet connection is working fine

One of the many Vivaldi updates probably messed up my sync chain. I used to be able to see the sites I opened on my laptop, but no longer. And I do not have a QR scanner on me, what now? Do I delete and recreate a sync chain?

Now download works but upload gives network error.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks, that explains my problems.
I do have a follow-up question. If I wanted to reset, or delete my sync data, in order to rebuild my sync chain. Which of my computers do reset/delete first, and do I need to reset/delete them all, before switching sync on again? (I'm a bit worried about sync chain corruption)

Hi, use the most up to date system, if you reset it all other devices get logged out.
Now you can cleanup, delete old bookmarks or something.
Start sync again on this device.
After you login on another device it get the "new" data from the server.

So don't need to update and reset all individual installations
As soon as my main desktop computer re-establishes connection, I will delete and recreate my sync data.
I'm a bit worried things got corrupted after all those updates in the past month.
But perhaps there is nothing to worry about and it's just a server outage.

I would wait at least a few hours until sync is stable again, it is still not working correctly.
