Im now experiencing exactly the same problem - my iPad & iPhone tabs were originally showing on big sur safari and when I clicked to close one of the ones showing as open on my iPhone the whole lot disappeared from big sur safari


Tabs are now not sync'ing across my iPhone and iPad now either. On all three devices only the tabs open in those instances of Safari are there, and none of the usual lists below showing open on the other devices.


As with the original poster I've tried all the advice given online for this issue i.e. toggling safari sync on and off under iCloud settings on all three devices, force quitting all device instances of safari & signing in and out of iCloud on all devices. All to no avail.
