Bug 1665353 tracks some changes we are making to bookmarks in Firefox. Part of that work introduced a pref named "browser.toolbars.bookmarks.2h2020" which is used for experimentation and gating of the feature work.

After we have concluded experimentation, we should remove the preference and the then-dead code that will result from the decision of which behavior to use going forward.

I would love to take this issue, although I may need some guidance along the way as it will be my first issue related to firefox desktop.

I don't know if we are ready to remove this pref yet. We are still gathering data to determine the effects of this change. We should have those results in a couple weeks.

Hey jaws,

browser.toolbars.bookmarks.2h2020 has been set to true for a number of months now... can we presume this is where we want to keep it, and can remove the pref and its false branches?

Yes, it should be safe to remove the pref now.
