The bug is not yet actionable, because a decision was not achieved yet. The team working on 2020H2 bookmarks improvements wanted to complete collecting users feedback and telemetry before evaluating further steps. Thus, while I'm in favor of this change, we should at least wait the end of that project.
Fwiw, there is already browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation, but that is updated to the last used folder as a consequence of bug 1432604. So the work here would pretty much introduce a pref to disable the behavior from bug 1432604 (don't remember the last used folder). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1586822 Title: Ability to set default save destination for new bookmarks Status in Mozilla Firefox: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Though I can understand the rationale for making all new bookmarks go into an "Unsorted Bookmarks" area, I think that it would be good if Firefox provided an option to allow the user to change the default save location for new bookmarks, because I for one don't want to have to move every new bookmark I make to the "Bookmarks Toolbar", I would like to be able to have them just go there automatically, but I can't currently so it would be good if there were an option to change the default save location of bookmarks.
