Uselees update!
I'm using FireFox for a long time and I'm trying to update my browser every time. Until this new update everything is fine. But right now history and bookmarks tab is screwed.
- I have to push every button, getting over my mouse isn't enough to open menu! - Old bookmarking system is better than this new one and easy to access. now i cannot find my folders without opening bookmarks sidebar or open new popup window via "Show All Bookmarks" option! - I'm not a fan of using short cuts.. at least for everything, but you now moved bookmark the current page button away from the bookmarks, next to the address bar! Ok, but there is page actions and in that actions menu, bookmark the page button is shows itself.. why? why 2 bookmark option side by side! - When i open the new tab, my eyes start to bleed! Really? You changed everything about the bookmark and moved away... But why i'm seeing bookmarks on that page? I already pinned something there and I don't want to see bookmarks there!!! - About the new tab, the old page was easy to use! New one is useless... I have to push additional button to open a menu for the pages show there! Really? - About bookmarks, actually highlights, how can i turn is off? is it necessary for the Firefox?
I hate to use google chrome but stop copying that shitty browser! If you are testing before release please check your testers, if you aren't test before release, I'm surprised that you can survive until now!

Sorry to hear this update was so disruptive for you. Let's see whether I can help with these issues.
- I have to push every button, getting over my mouse isn't enough to open menu!
Do you mean with bookmark folders? Please see my comment on the next point.
- Old bookmarking system is better than this new one and easy to access. now i cannot find my folders without opening bookmarks sidebar or open new popup window via "Show All Bookmarks" option!
There is a "real" bookmarks menu button for the toolbar. You can add it from Customize, or use a feature on the "Library" button as described in the article linked below:
- Bookmarks in Firefox - section entitled: How do I add the Bookmarks Menu button to the toolbar?
- I'm not a fan of using short cuts.. at least for everything, but you now moved bookmark the current page button away from the bookmarks, next to the address bar!

I don't know why "page action" buttons that you have in the address bar are duplicated on the drop-down menu. ???

Are you seeing the "Activity Stream" design? When you click the "cog" button on the right side of the page, it opens a long panel of sections you can show and hide. If you prefer the old layout, you can switch as follows:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful or accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste newt and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false
Either open a new tab, or reload an existing new tab, to revert the layout.
- About the new tab, the old page was easy to use! New one is useless... I have to push additional button to open a menu for the pages show there! Really?
Okay, see above.
- About bookmarks, actually highlights, how can i turn is off? is it necessary for the Firefox?
Do you mean, on the panel that appears when you click the "Library" toolbar button (looks like some books on a shelf)? Those Recent Highlights seem to be a mix of bookmarks (star icon) and history (clock icon). Is that the list you want to hide?
I don't know if there is a setting to hide that. If not, a custom style rule in a userChrome.css file could hide it.
Note: I'm looking at the Nightly version, which is a test version of Firefox 59, so your Library toolbar button panel might be a bit different in Firefox 57.
