Opera is not Syncing Data

I posted about this over in https://forums.opera.com/topic/72055/duplicated-my-opera-tabs-and-bookmarks-won-t-sync-across-computers but I am having a similar issue.
My sync issue is between two Macs running Opera One version 111.0.5168.25 on arm64.
I have verified both are logging into the same Opera account and both have Sync for everything enabled. But Bookmarks and history are not syncing between the two. I have tried closing and restarting Opera on both, including having both closed at the same time. Starting one and giving it enough time to Sync (though it is always a guess), and then starting the other to see if it's bookmarks file is updated.
This problem appears to have been going on for a little while, maybe a few weeks or even a few months, as there were differences between bookmarks that I hadn't noticed.

@chris-in-eugene 100% the same problem.
You can export Passwords and Bookmarks on Desktop. History I don't know.
I was able to import bookmarks from the local HTML copy... But I think that the syncing on OperaGX is broken now...
Gonna give it a day... If it doesn't work... Just gonna switch to Firefox.

Same between Windows 11 & an Android device. Been true for weeks but just hadn't taken any action other than confirming that both devices are correctly logged in and sync is turned on. Definitely going to prompt me to look for another browser solution if this is not resolved soon.

I'm having the same problem.
Post in Japanese
https://forums.opera.com/topic/72688It's not reflected on this page either, so I guess the cloud sync isn't working properly.

Dose anyone know how to contact Opera for this, I don't see a support email on the website.

@thetoonz I have today been experiencing the same issues as everyone else here has mentioned.
I have deleted numerous bookmarks and speed dials, got everything how I want it, emptied the bin, cleared all history apart from passwords, but then when closing opera and opening it again, all the stuff I have just deleted returns, so bored with no support from Opera, I'm leaving and going over to Edge, shame because Opera used to be the best, now its a convoluted mess!!!!!! -

Same problem here!
Multiple win 11 computers, android phone & tablet. Last day of sync was about 5 months ago. Ever since, nothing is synced, although no errors are shown

Same here.
Last sync was in April. I even try a full new fresh install and still nothing, it just doesn't sync. Mind you, my flow is working most of the time now even if everything else doesn't (it didn't use to work at all for months).
Seems to me the problem is either on opera servers or it's
coding. -

It would be nice if there could be a developer mode or something that would allow us to see any sync issues. Maybe in a log, or something that would point us in the right direction as to what is going wrong.

@thetoonz That is the same error showing up, but I can't find any more information about it. However, I did find other browsers, also based on Chromium, with the same issues, this one for Brave: https://community.brave.com/t/how-do-i-sync-history-now/523196/12
