The new bookmarks adding menu is too complicated. First it does not seem to be possible to anchor my existing bookmarks menu to the left of my screen, so each time I want to use a bookmark, I have to make several clicks on the bookmark icon to find my bookmarks, and then the adding a bookmark requires more steps than before. If it ain't broke don't fix it comes to mind.

Hi, if the traditional bookmarks button is missing, open the 3-bar menu > Library > Bookmarks > Bookmarking tools, and click Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar - see Bookmarks in Firefox. If you don't see it on the toolbar, go to the 3-bar menu > Customize, and look for it in the palette, from where you can drag it to a toolbar. If the button is still missing, try clicking on Restore Defaults. Whilst there, you can also change the UI appearance in Themes and Density. You might also want to drag the sidebar button to the toolbar - Use the Firefox sidebar to access bookmarks, history and social features. More - Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.
