Bookmarks menu is too spaced

As of version 91 I think it was, around middle of 2021 (last year), in the dropdowns from the across-to-the-top bookmarks menu, the items are spaced out vertically way too much. So much space is wasted. I like the spacing they had before that version. I just want to go on record as giving feedback that I don't like it, and wish it went back to the original spacing. I have looked at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1346987 and know there's all sorts of weird stuff I can do to customize my Firefox to get the spacing I want, however, my point with this post is to get feedback back to the Firefox developers to see if they will consider changing it back. If posting here is not the best way to get feedback back to the developers/designers/product-owners, please let me know the best way. I couldn't find another way.

In fact, in the commentary/replies on that issue (issue https://mozilla.crowdicity.com/post/720482 ), a Firefox person posted this link https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/compact-mode-workaround-firefox which has instructions for a secret "compact" option you can now illuminate and use. I did that, and now it's much better. Still would be nice if were the default, when using browser with desktop computer. Seems that ridiculous spacing was done with tablet users (using touch interface) in mind.

Ok, I just found out about submitting feedback to developers via https://ideas.mozilla.org (or in Firefox browser, Help > Submit Feedback). I went there... it actually redirects to https://mozilla.crowdicity.com, but it is the "Ideas" space. I found the following entry: https://mozilla.crowdicity.com/post/720482 which is titled "Reduce the space between bookmark lines in menus". This is exactly my issue. I am voting on it and commenting on it. Hopefully a future version will improve the issue.
