How to change home page and new tab to desired URL or any extension of Firefox desktop in 2025?
I am unable to find any way to change how my new tab should look when I click + sign or new tab is opened up on browser opening or re-opening unlike Chrome.
I hate the change of position of typing from the search bar on the current new tab to the URL bar (unseen or unheard in Chrome) that Firefox implemented without considering users who would detest it.
Using Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit)

You can enter Custom URLs for the Home Page but you can't do anything with the New Tab page.
I agree you should be able to. You may want to suggest it as an "Idea" at: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas

This is so sad. This should have been by default.
But anyways, I have posted it as you said, and here it is.
Consider upvoting so that Firefox team brings this revolutionary feature very soon.
These are you options for setting a home page or alternative url.

These two help links should help set homepage and new tab "homepage" but for extensions you can't change those are the Addon creator don't give you permission to change or modify their software.
As of now, I am using this addon, Bonjourr · Minimalist and lightweight startpage

This works but something in-built would be beneficial.
Unfortunately, beyond the Firefox help on Homepage and New Tabs help that is all they have and beyond that would be a Addon or 3rd party software to do what your asking.
