In the classic version of Tridion, the navigation menu with "Home", "Create", etc. appeared in the tab/pop-up when adding a component link.
In the new UI, it is no longer there. Instead, you need to cancel the popup, navigate to the component directory, add the component, then navigate back to where you were, which is far less productive and difficult for staff to remember.
Please consider adding the navigation back into the component popup.
Classic view (which worked well):
New UI view (menu options are missing):
