Removing Features Isn't Accessibility. It's Frustration. In Germany we say "Verschlimmbesserung!"

Dear Mozilla Team,

I genuinely wonder what went through your minds when you removed one of the most intuitive features ever: dragging a website address into the bookmarks bar.

That function was accessible, fast, logical, and especially helpful for people with limited dexterity or vision because it worked without menus, submenus, or memorized keyboard shortcuts.

Now you're telling us that removing this feature is an improvement for accessibility?
That’s not progress – that’s a digital downgrade, plain and simple.

Many of us have used this for years. It was muscle memory. And now it’s gone without
a proper explanation or even a fallback option.

Please consider bringing it back – or at the very least, make it a configurable option
for power users who know what they’re doing.

It’s not just about convenience. It’s about trust. Don’t chip away at the features that
made Firefox great in the first place.

Sincerely,
A very frustrated user with a good memory and a working mouse
