Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:125.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/125.0

Steps to reproduce:

Select multiple tabs, and right click to add to bookmark.

Actual results:

In the dialog to add bookmarks, It force me to use a nested folder (default [folder name]) inside the expected position I want my bookmarks directly in there.

Expected results:

Give me an option to disable the nested folder behavior, or at least when I wipe out the folder name field, stop making a new folder.
(Asking me for a folder by default is OK, but should not force me to do it every time. What if I want to place my bookmark to "bookmarks today"? should I call the new folder "bookmarks today's afternoon", "bookmarks today's 19:00", etc.? And there is a ton of reason people don't want to create a new folder I can't elaborate all of them here)

There are also a ton of voice complaining the same feature in Chrome's community:
Bookmark all tabs creates a folder
Fix bug Issue 171094: Bookmark all tabs creates a folder

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Bookmarks & History' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Bookmarks & History

Give possibility to bookmark multiple tabs at once to an existing folder
I know this is more suitable for a feature request but that same issue in their community doesn't get a reasonable response. And my post about "the operation the answer provided doesn't work in this version, besides it's a bad UX" got hidden.
