How can I bookmark a page without using the stupid star?

I have used Firefox since the days of Netscape. Now what used to be easy now becomes more like M$ products. I want to get rid of that stupid star that makes things more confusing by placing bookmarks in a generic 'Unsorted Bookmarks' folder that requires further attention to sort my bookmarks when before I did it all at the time that I created the bookmark with 'bookmark this page'. I understand that clicking on the blue star again will bring up the bookmark properties, this is just an inconvenience, adding time wasted. I would like my bookmarks to be like they were in the previous version of Firefox.
