The Pocket support team got this request: https://twitter.com/tenten8401/status/1038181625811619846

I think that specific pref is `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.topstories`, but there are other `browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.*` prefs that we should probably sync, too.

Ursula, do you have suggestions for AS prefs to sync, or which ones not to? :-)

The list of prefs that affect about:preferences#home is:

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.topsites
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.snippets

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.topstories
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.topstories.rows

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.highlights
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.highlights.includeVisited
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.highlights.includeBookmarks
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.highlights.includeDownloads
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.highlights.includePocket
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.section.highlights.rows

These should probably all be sync-ed :)

Just tested the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch parameter.
I couldn't have it synced using my Firefox Account between different Firefox installations.
