Can reproduce, looks like a recent regression. I'll bisect.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2022-09-26 19:36:41 UTC 
Now I remember. We deliberately broke this to fix drag-and-drop with a pointing device and touch scrolling:


commit 66507b5df163071128a90983d10f699aa1a9b3cf

    Disable Drag and Drop for touch, fix drag and drop icons
    
    Drag and drop conflicted with drag/flick scrolling and drag and drop was
    deemed less important than scrolling or opening the context menu for
    touch. Maybe in the future we can have a way to at least rearrange
    favorites with touch input.
    
    Drag and drop icons seem to have been broken by commit
    0868a5ae8154d10ccc7488034bc5b6e458a17968 and are now fixed.
    
    BUG: 450448


Hopefully there is a way we can have both.
