Hi @Nicolas, when you Signed out did you check the "Delete data from this device(passwords, history, bookmarks)" option from the Sign out panel? If you just sign out without checking that option you will keep everything on that device.
Please note that if you Disconnect first that option is not displayed on the Sign out panel, also Disconnecting will only stop Syncing but it wont delete any of your browser data on that device, as mentioned on the Disconnect panel.
You will still be signed in but syncing will be disabled, which means any tabs you reach on other devices will not show up in your Fx View section but you can still manually send Tabs on any device you are signed in.
If you check the option to delete data from the device, your history, bookmarks and extensions will be deleted, the Firefox Dark theme will still remain.
Please also note that after you Disconnect and Sign out, Signing back in again will re enabled the sync functionality and you will recover everything that was previously synced on that account.

It seems this issue was logged twice, I will close this one as a dupe and keep track of it in the other one.
