Things I have done which leads to "Unexpected error": 1. Tried to sign in via Windows 7 (after refresh Firefox & in restart with add-ons disabled), Android 8.0 (newly-bought phone) and ios (sister's old phone) -> "Unexpected error" 2. Received confirmation email for new device (new Android 8.0 phone) -> Verification link -> "Unexpected error" 3. Tried to reset password -> received the reset password email -> "Unexpected error"

about:sync-log showed me no logs at all. So hoping this thing got fixed quick.

At the moment there's a Sync "Unexpected error' explosion going on.

But we're dealing with different time zones, and it's weekend - it may take a while, so please, hang in there.
