Can I link my new tab page to a URL?

What I want to happen is that I want to open a new tab, and instead of the Firefox new tab I want to automatically go to my desired website. I know that there is an add-on for this on Google Chrome and on Opera, but I can't seem to find anything on the Mozilla Firefox add-on page. Is there an add-on for this or do I just have to deal with the defaults?

Sorry, can use a older one from the 2nd URL. FYI : https://www.ghacks.net/2017/10/05/mozilla-to-drop-firefox-support-for-windows-xp-and-vista-in-june-2018/
