It annoys me very much that you cannot disable this in the user settings, but most likely it can be in the settings for developers (about:config), but I do not know which specific parameter turns this off. Of course, I can turn off the history altogether and then the sites will not be added, but this is not an option.

So, how can I disable adding sites based on my requests and visited pages in the top sites?

What sites do you want to appear in the tiles ?

You can pin websites you want to show to tiles or hide this section if you have no use for it.
