Any hope of backing up bookmarks from an old version of Firefox in Android 4.4?

I have an old Lenovo tablet running Firefox 68.11 in Android Kitkat (4.4)

This device has never synced before, and as you know Mozilla, for reasons known only to themselves, never made a simple bookmark export in the Android app.

My attempts to set up a sync has also failed, access to https://accounts.firefox.com is apparently inaccessible, the page never loads, except for the logo you can see below.

Am I just out of luck?

I know for desktop at least that Firefox Sync is not longer supported on Fx 78.0 and older.

Any other method of getting to the bookmarks? The device is not rooted, so I don't have (obvious) access to the app folders

Hjälpsam?

Hi

Rooting you device is not advised and could lead to the loss of the data that you are trying to rescue.

Possibly the only way to rescue those bookmarks would be to copy and paste the addresses into a blank email and email it to yourself (and access that email on a different device.

I appreciate that this will not be easy or quick, it is possibly the only way to rescue that data.

Hjälpsam?

Seems like Mozilla jumped the gun in turning off access to sync for these older devices. Seems like Mozilla follows google a little too closely...

Hjälpsam?
