Syncing between my desktop and my phone has been working just fine for years, just as it had been with my laptop until recently, but I changed the version of Linux I had installed on my laptop earlier today, and despite being able to sign in just fine (as you can see by me posting this with my account), and it syncing correctly on the initial sign in, actively syncing between my laptop and other devices is not functioning (if I make a new bookmark right now, it will not show up on my phone or desktop).
Looking at the sync page in settings it says "Please sign in to reconnect [my email address]", and the account widget on my toolbar has a yellow triangle symbol and a warning saying "account disconnected", but if I click "connect to another device" on the sync menu and then click "not now" I can get to my account page, fully signed in and able to click buttons to change settings (I signed out my old laptop while I was there just fine).
Attempting to re-sign in by any method (clicking "connect to another device" in the sync menu and then choosing "I already have Firefox mobile"; clicking "sign in" in the sync menu; signing out fully, emptying my cookies etc. and then signing in fresh) all leads me into a loop where I insert my password, provide a verification code from my email, provide my 2-factor code, click "I already have Firefox mobile", and then have to sign in again doing the same steps leading to the same place, forever. I will note, however, that signing out entirely and then signing back in does get me from signed out to signed in despite not correcting this error.
In case it would help I attempted to change my password via the account menu, but it says that my definitely correct password (I used the exact same entry from my clipboard successfully to sign in moments ago) is incorrect, and attempting to use the "forgot my password" menu gives me the error "Unexpected error" instead of doing anything, which is not very helpful. My password remains unchanged. I do not know if this is relevant.
After some looking things up I was made aware of a secret menu called "about:sync-log" which I used to see if I could find an error message, and I did indeed find one (I can guarantee that it's new and relevant because this Linux install is only several hours old).
I don't know how much of this error log is safe to share, so I'll only cut in some choice segments I noticed (which turned out to be, like, over a third of it):

Oh wait, that's the end of the log...
Hopefully this is one of those network errors that just resolve itself the next day and not any kind of serious issue.
Hope everyone at Mozilla is having a good day! (:
