about:config not enabled ?
I am trying to open about:config in Firefox Focus Android (normal version, no beta), and it does not open. Is this a bug or by design? Please not "by design". What I want to change: The number of rows on the shortcuts, since only four shortcuts are not enough.

Hi
About:config is not available in the Release copy of Firefox Focus for Android but is something that is available in the Beta and Nightly versions available from the Google Play store.
First thank you for your response! So I have to use Beta / nightly to change this single config option not available via in the normal options menu: browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows = 4 ? I am now on Version 125.0.1 after selecting the beta in the store. 125.0.20240408174942. But about:config still does not open. is this the latest beta? I was version 124 before selecting beta. What now? Is there a way to change the number of shortcut rows the normal way? This is the ONLY thing I want to change since that is the ONLY thing which is, from my point of view, bad about firefox focus. Everything else it perfect. What is the logic to disable about:config for normal users anyway, this is really weird for an "open" product like firefox.

First: Than you for your reply! So I have to switch to beta to change browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows to 4, which is missing in the normal menu. This is the only thing I want to change, since this is the only bad usability thing about firefox focus for Android. Everything else is perfect. I have successfully switched to the latest beta. Build was 124.x before updating, now it is 125 (125.0-20240408174943). But about:config is still empty. Is there currently no beta, or has something been forgotten? Is there another way to change that option, like opening a specific file (let it by sqlite, I can handle that) and change that single usability option?
