Reopening Mobile Bookmark Subfolders After Closing the Bookmark Menu

Hello, I have recently migrated to Firefox from Chrome on both my desktop and my mobile device. With the chrome mobile app, there is a basic function where once you have opened a folder or subfolder in the bookmark browser, the app remembers which subfolder that was, and reopens to that same subfolder when you open the browser again.

On the mobile Firefox app, it always boots you back to the highest level of the folders, outside even the desktop bookmarks folder. Which means that if I want to use my phone to and access bookmarks nested deep in my subfolders, I need to go >desktop bookmarks, >bookmarks toolbar, >Personal, >Stories. This is every time I open the bookmark browser and access bookmarks in this subfolder.

This is in contrast to the Chrome app, where it would automatically reopen to the >Stories subfolder.

Is there some way to attain this functionality on the Firefox mobile browser? It's very inconvenient, to the point that I am considering moving back to the Chrome app.
