Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/113.0
Steps to reproduce:
I tried to debug some accessibility issues using another version of my current operating system.
I tried to sync my Firefox font settings, accessibility settings, etc.
Actual results:
Firefox Sync sent a confirmation code to my email, with a 5-minute timer. I would have to reboot, open my email, write down the code, reboot again, and return to sync.
Expected results:
It might be doable with a much longer timer, but not a 5-minute timer.
I imagine other users encounter similar problems.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Sync' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

The code is actually available for 15 minutes even though it says 5. Note also that unfortunately, most accessibility settings (bug 1689763) and fonts (bug 1528880) aren't synced. So I don't think there's much actionable here today.
