Before I took my computer to a repair facility and had to reinstall Firefox, my recent activity bar had all the websites I use and wanted quick access to along one lovely line. Now I have a bunch of "suggested" crap Firefox must be getting paid for along my recent activity bar. I've never visited these pages and selecting the menu trying to dismiss them doesn't work. How do I eliminate the sponsored sites and get what I want along the recent activity bar?

Chosen solution

Read the link that is from FireFox showing you what to do and how to remove/disable suggestion. The page firefox shows is a default page not a homepage of sorts. But the pages your browser was at during that time.

I must not be explaining myself well, I don't know the names of everything. I'm not asking about search suggestions. I am speaking of the icons across the page when I open Firefox. There are sites I've never visited such as "geeky travel" that won't dismiss and sites that I do want along this bar, that I bookmark and don't show up.

I assume you mean the Firefox Home page with the tiles. You can possibly pin your favorite webpages to a tile to prevent Firefox from filling them.
