Can you disable the new bookmarking thing?

Recently there's been a change so that when you click the star to bookmark, rather than just the star turning blue and that's it, it'll bring down a very in the way and unnecessary dropdown menu with a screenshot and details of what you just bookmarked.

It will also do a little animation of putting the bookmark in the library, is there a way to disable both of these new things and just have the star turn blue and nothing else?

Hi Xirix, the screenshot is new, but the dialog has been dropping down since Firefox 57.

There isn't any built-in way to suppress the dialog, as far as I know. You can press Enter to save the bookmark (previously, even if you hit Esc it would be saved, but not any more).

Or consider using an add-on to save your bookmarks instead. This one has an optional one-click button which includes saving in a custom folder (if you aren't keen on your bookmarks going directly into the "Other Bookmarks" folder):

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-bookmark-folder/

I didn't do a fresh search, so there might be other options by now.

Firefox 63, which was released today, has a feature to bypass the panel and just save the bookmark. Here's where to find that:

Keyboard command 'Control-D' saves the Bookmark with the pop-up box that auto-fades away, if that helps anyone with versions earlier than FF 63.
