I understand your frustration. I spend many hours curating my bookmarks and losing them and/or having to fix them is a pain.
In addition to preventing (if possible) such corruption, I'm thinking of adding a new feature to automatically/manually recover such a corruption. If the bookmarks are completely unreadable by Firefox, then it will need to be a standalone tool.

If the sort is running while you are adding/importing/syncing (or any activity that changes the indexes), then I can see this happening. I'll run some experiments with sync, xmarks, and eversync.

I was not aware of sync or eversync. I’m checking our Eversync. I have repeatedly asked Xmarks to add sorting but they are too big go bother (they were bought by LastPass).
Wouldn’t it be ideal to have your code integrated with one of these products?

@michaelalandover: you, me, and a lot of other people have asked xmarks/LastPass to add a sort feature repeatedly for many years. Sadly, it's never going to happen.
I used to use xmarks, now I like EverSync (it doesn't sort either); it has a free iPhone app and I can sync with Chrome:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fvd-synchronizer
Anyway, I think ASB should be sync-client neutral (I don't think any integration is needed).
When the new release (2.10.6) is available, give it a try and let me know if it's more stable or not.

Cool, thanks for explaining. I might try EverSync.

@blackwind: how can I replicate this? I noticed you said "sync". Are you using Firefox Sync? Are you syncing and sorting at the same time?
from auto-sort-bookmarks-webext.
Are you using Firefox Sync?
Correct.
Are you syncing and sorting at the same time?
Am I explicitly running a sync and a sort at the same time? No. Is it possible I added a bookmark during a sync (which occurs in the background whenever it feels like it), causing the add-on to automatically sort my bookmarks at the same time? I suppose so.
Unfortunately, I can't provide any further insight as to how to reproduce, as reordering my thousands of bookmarks after the add-on jumbles them takes hours and hours of time I don't currently have to waste. All I can say for certain is, it happened, and I won't touch the add-on again until such a time that this is confirmed to be resolved.

I'm closing this because I'm not able to reproduce the problem reported.
