You can set the home page to any page that you want, so set the Firefox home page to your preferred web page.

about:home is the default homepage for Firefox. Mozilla has never used a homepage like Yahoo with sports, news, weather and such.

No, Firefox doesn't have that sort of feature... yet... But you can change your homepage to Optus or Yahoo for sports, news, etc.
