My question is: what’s wrong with browser bookmarks and something SIMPLE to sync them between like devices like floccus (+ webdav server)?

Content changes or disappear.
For fun, I booted up a old 2005 laptop with windows xp on it. The bookmarks were all dead. And most weren’t archived in any way.
There’s do many browser games I used to play that is completely lost in time.

How would browser games survive with that solution tho? They most likely require some server…

Most browser games are quite simple and aren’t running on a remote server.

Games from that time were actually running mostly in your browser. Meaning that the host, for example Miniclip served you the JavaScript and other files of the game which were then executed locally. So technically you could archive those games as long as you can load them up at least once initially.
