The newest version of Firefox now has what seems to be a permanent sidebar on the left side of the screen. This is incredibly inconvenient as 1) I have no need for it or any of the AI stuff and 2) I'm using an older screen that is square and so now web pages are contorted when I view them.

Please remove this bar or let me know how to remove it myself.

Thank you.

Click Customize sidebar at the bottom of the sidebar, then select Show and hide sidebar. Now the sidebar button next to the address will disable the sidebar.

Thank you! The toggle button on the main toolbar was the missing piece of the puzzle.
