Making moves

Hello team,
Bookmark needs some changes to make the browser better and easy on the eye.

My input might be also many more users thoughts about this subject. 

  1. Font bookmark is quite small, using developer tool still it's making it hard to read, using too big font and everything looks big and out of place, also why I need to even use developer tool...? Shouldn't be a norm to have a readable bookmarks?
    I've used many browsers and this thing was never a trouble for me, only with Firefox browser it is.
    Look below Edge vs Firefox font sizes difference (and no, I didn't touch any settings in Edge browser for that):

  2. Opening Bookmark (or history) tool itself, no option to pin to be always as a side panel, always it's 2 clicks away.

  3. Editing a bookmark- When I need or anyone needs to edit a bookmark usually is for:

    a) Editing the title/name of the bookmark
    b) Editing the bookmark link if needed
    c) Change the folder/placement of the bookmark
    d) Opening a new folder (if needed)

    So why in here gives me those options only?justbe_4-1757213822176.png

    Tags? Keywords? I don't need those, I never seen any browser using only this type of editing. 

    The editing bookmark should have this options:

  4. Quick actions with right click on the bookmarked link.
    Rename would been another blessed feature, to be able to change the title right away without going to the edit prompt.
    Copy Link to copy the link without entering the page or go the edit prompt.

    vs the given FF quick options:

    Also most of the quick actions can be done by the upper panel of the side window and side window can be pinned/unpinned:

    Clicking on the 3 dots gives more option as below (only for your knowledge):

    I think if those improvements will be accepted/ implemented from the FF team, the browser can be really perfect and a user friendly one.
