The places.sqlite file contains your History and Bookmarks. And it looks like it is corrupted.

Under the page logo on the left side, you will see Application Basics. Under this find Profile Folder. To its right press the button Show Folder. This will open your file browser to the current Firefox profile. Now Close Firefox.
Locate the above file. Then rename or delete it. Restart Firefox. The browser should then create a new place.sqlite and recover your bookmarks from the backup files.

Hi FredMcD, thanks for your reply, I didn't have sync turned on, and drag and drop bookmarks in the side bar is still working on another of my macs 10.14.6 Mojave with Firefox 95.02 so it looks like the finger points at Monterey?

Just going to try the places.sqlite deletion and rather than lose this reply, post it and come back again, bye for now.....:)
Many thanks, renaming places.sqlite has fixed it, thought verify said it was sane! Thank you again for your detailed reply.
I barely manage to keep my bookmarks under control anyway and use drag and drop re-ordering a lot, so restoring that functionality is very helpful.
I keep hoping that with each Firefox update that there will one day be a way to select multiple bookmarks for operations like deletion, or move or place in new subfolder, but it never happens, maybe one day....:)

Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
The Bookmarks Manager works much like the computer's file browser.
Select the first item with a left-click. Then, holding down the <Shift> key,
select other items the same way.
Ah yes so it does and it seems to have acquired the ability to delete multiple bookmarks too, that's great. Thanks once again.....
