Hey!

Early I was able just to drag URL from the address bar and page name / title will appear as the bookmark name. But two or three days ago FF stopped doing that, instead in the bookmark name I get just the URL duplicated.

I feel it may be related with new 111 version that was released around that time and installed on my computer by FF auto-update.

See pic attached, after the `pythonds` bookmark bug started to appear and names are URLs now :(

You now need to drag the tab or link to the bookmarks toolbar or sidebar instead of the URL in the location bar if that is what you are doing.

Yeah, when I drag the tab to the bookmarks bar the FF creates bookmark and title as usual. Thank you for the hint.

So is it a feature of the new FF version, not a bug?
