Bookmark Saves Listing Placement - bookmarks should be placed in ascending order (newest at top)

[Vrye]

New bookmarks are currently placed in descending order (newest at bottom). This action can (and does) bury a bookmark out of sight at the very bottom when listings are long. When adding to lists bookmarks should always be placed in ascending order (newest at top), since that new bookmark has gained current priority over previous bookmarks in a given listing. The bookmark can obviously be moved later.

I think bookmark management is very useful in a browser.
In firefox as I know there is sorting in the bookmarks manager, but that's only temporary and doesn't apply to the bookmarks toolbar.
I think the bookmarks toolbar is very useful, especially where there are folders. I, as an academic, am very grateful to the firefox team for providing the best firefox browser. however, whenever i add a bookmark to a folder it is always at the bottom position, and it is very tedious to scroll down long.

I think the warning when placing duplicate bookmarks will help the user in adding bookmarks, the main goal is not to have duplicate bookmarks.my idea:
1. Add a permanent sort function even though Firefox is restarted, also applies to the toolbar bookmarks and folders.
2. Add duplicate bookmark warning function,

An option in settings to list bookmarks in ascending or descending order would be helpful.

please reverse bookmark list so i can close some of the 50 +tabs that i have opened all the time. then i can start using bookmarks again.

Sort bookmarks by recency so most recent is at the top of the list rather than the bottom

I'm more likely to want to interact with most recent bookmarks so this would reduce the need for searching and scrolling to the end of the list for the most recently added items.

bookmark position

I highly recommand that new-added websites should be put in the top position of a bookmark folder.  That is, websites in a bookmark folder should follow the rule: the recent-added websites on the top position whereas the old ones on the bottom position in the bookmark folder.

Please enable bookmark folders to be changeable as for where it appears in bookmarks. As of now, when you add new bookmark, it adds to bottom list, should be by date or alphabetize. Just a suggestion.

Also please remove the bar for customize home screen, doesn't need to be visible all the time. Takes up to much room on front page

Thank you

@Anonymous there's a separate thread for your request to remove the bar for customize home screen:

Customize homepage button - Add option to disable the "Customize homepage" button

It's almost a nightmare to save bookmarks. The window is too small, the hierarchy list is hard to read, and sorting is crazy.
