Why not just use bookmarks in Firefox with sync enabled? You can self host your own sync server if you are worried about privacy.
Is there any real privacy concern from using Mozilla's sync server?
The data is encrypted and can't even be recovered unless you create a recovery key. Some people don't want their browser phoning home and others just don't want to store their data on someone else's server.
No, it's fully end-to-end encrypted.
