I am angry with Mozilla today. Who do I talk to?

more options

I hate the new tab with the tiles. But what makes me angry is that it was pushed onto me. Is there a chance that Mozilla can adopt a respectful attitude and allow users to opt-in to a feature? Unwillingly, I am now in the situation where I have to work, research, and install addin's to disable a feature that is unwanted and useless to me.

Hi, for security reasons, from Firefox 41, you need to use an add-on like New Tab Override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the New Tab page.

Once installed, open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A) > Extensions, then look for New Tab Override and click on Options to set your preference.

Note, if you only want the New Tab to be the same as your Home page, you can use the add-on New Tab Homepage instead.

You may then need to restart Firefox for any changes to take effect.
