Mozilla is constantly experimenting with ways to improve the Firefox browser. The company has announced that it's testing changes to the New Tab Page, and the new look might remind you of other web browsers.

Firefox is experimenting with new layout variants for the New Tab page, which users can try out in Nightly builds by toggling specific preferences in about:config. The templates will focus on recommended content, which means Mozilla is looking to improve the New Tab page's utility beyond just a collection of frequently visited sites. This strategy aligns with trends seen in other browsers. The mobile Google Chrome browser, for example, prominently features its Discover feed on the New Tab page, offering personalized content recommendations. Microsoft Edge, while criticized for its somewhat cluttered MSN-heavy approach, also prioritizes news and information on its New Tab page.

I don't get excited about browsers, they just keep adding stuff I don't need and then I have to figure out how to uninstall or disable them.
Like my current issue with Edge. The Favorites icon dropdown menu is broken, opening links in new tabs and windows is greyed out. So I installed Edge Canary and appearance page is completely broken (blank page). And uBO MV2 is broken, and it's a browser issue. Now I'm using Brave. 😆
