It looks like you just right-click on it and select "Remove from <br>
Toolbar" if you don't want it on your toolbar.<br>

I just enabled it via about:config on firefox 105, and it appears to be <br>
removed as mentioned.<br>
<br>
FWIW, it doesn't work in 105 -- I get the icon to add/remove from the <br>
toolbar, but the actual Firefox Sync landing page isn't included yet.<br>
<br>
I'll actually use this, and hope it's included in 106 Release.<br>

Had to use quotes, which found the ghacks discussion above:<br>
