I tried following this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-html-file but I'm not able to import my bookmarks, nothing happened. The file is HTML, I opened and looks normal. I'm using Pop!_OS.

Why not use Sync? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-choose-what-information-sync-firefox You should also run multiple version of Firefox because Sync will see each version as a different device and you can backup you info across the versions. see screenshots

Is that HTML file a file like original exported via Firefox.

You can create a sample HTML file and compare the file source with the file that fails to import.
