Dowmload Display
Since the last update, when I download a file, it always displays the complete download list. Prior to this it only displayed the list when I clicked the download symbol. Is this some new feature, it's very annoying, or a bug? How do I turn it off, I checked the setting and can't find anything? An Internet search said to look in the Download area and uncheck the feature, I could not find anything to uncheck.
Chosen solution
In Firefox 97 and 98 there have been changes to the download panel.

You can set this pref to false on the about:config page to prevent opening the download panel on each download.
- browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel = false
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
