I’m finding the Bookmark Manager extremely frustrating to use. The problem is that whenever I manage a bookmark by moving it the Manager jumps back to the top of the list of bookmarks.
This problem was also reported in May but seems to have been ignored/unresolved.
I just set up a new M1 Mac and it is still doing it. This was also happening on a 2012 Mac book pro so I doubt it’s hardware related.
There is an open Github issue, hopefully developers will fix the issue anytime soon.

Well I wish they would because it’s making it unusable.

End of June 2022 and still nothing.
Using the Bookmarks Manager is a horrible experience because of this bug.
I’ve been experimenting with Librewolf - which doesn’t have this problem - and I think I’ll be abandoning Brave since there has been no progress after nearly a year since the issue was raised.
