I'm trying to access something from my history on my mobile device. However, it's far back enough page-wise that it does not show in the history list on Firefox for Android. I synced my mobile device with my Firefox account and have now attempted to pull up my history on my desktop, but my desktop still only shows its own history and not my mobile device's history, despite both the desktop and mobile being synced.

I found a website in the middle of the night last night and now I cannot find it again via websearch. Not being able to access my history and find the website is exceedingly frustrating. It is not in recently closed tabs as I navigated from it to another site before closing a tab, so there's no way to retrieve it via reopening a tab.
