So I am having issues downgrading this new "update" that makes Firefox complete and udder garbage. The bookmarks don't show up now unless I type them in almost fully (multiple bookmarks on one site is an issue) or unless I go thru menu after menu to get to my bookmark manager. the old firefox had useful, easy to us, ready made, UI components that worked. This new Firefox is utter garbage and in my opinion the creator of this new 'style' of garbage that doesn't work should be dragged out and fired.

Oh and a shoutout to Tyler Downer for removing links on the other question page. your really "helping out"

Tyler is actually doing his job by removing those direct links as they break Forum rules and Guidelines. If you truly feel the need to downgrade, use the https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-older-version-of-firefox and read the warning before doing so.
