When uploading a file, how do I set Firefox to stop mixing folders and files alphabetically?

When I upload a file, Firefox is displaying everything in pure alphabetical order. For example, if I have folders named "Bananas" and "Pizza", a file named Chocolate.jpg is listed in between them.

Where is the setting to tell Firefox to display folders first, then files? The pure alphabetical order is making it difficult to locate and select the files I'm uploading.

Browser is Firefox 71.0 for Linux (Ubuntu).
