How to stop suggested sites in new tab?
I love the new tab that allows me to see tiles of sites that I go to the most. I've been using it for about a year now and I love that I can open a new tab and, most of the time, simply click on a tile to get where I want to go. However, for the past month, the first tile on my page - which is usually Google - has been suggested sites. The first time this happened, I'd already clicked it because I'm so used to Google being there, so I was really annoyed. I went back to the new tab, deleted the suggested site tile and then everything went back to normal. So, for a month now, I've had to delete the first tile on my new tab page every single time I open a new tab for it to go away. Now, however, it will not go away, no matter how many times I delete it. Once it is gone, the first tile space stays empty for a few seconds before bringing up a new suggested site. I've searched dozens of places online to find out how to stop the suggested site tile from popping up in the first place, but the only one that came remotely close to answering my question was so complicated that I couldn't follow it.
Can anyone give me explicit, easy-to-read, hopefully step-by-step instructions on how to disable the suggested site tile on new tabs? Thank you in advance.

Hi
I recommend you have a look at this article that will walk you through how to turn off Suggested Sites on the New Tab page.
You can also "pin" a tab (like Google) to that page. A guide as to how to do that can be found here.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

Hi obliviousmassacre
What Seburo said :) Just follow the instructions in the article he posted. You just need to uncheck the option for suggested tiles and you're good to go.
In addition, if you want to provide feedback about the usefulness of that feature directly to mozilla you could do so at https://input.mozilla.org/feedback
Thank you, Seburo. I can't believe I didn't even think of that.
