Developer response
posted 2 years agoThis doesn't make sense since "about:home" is the default new tab page and you woulnd't use this add-on at all to use it as new tab page.
Also it's not possible at all for WebExtensions to open about:home via the tabs API. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18096584, 2 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12920934, 2 years agoVery good, does exactly what it promised. Unfortunately you can't disable the behavior, if you changed the new tab to another extension, this extension will take over. It's extremely annoying if you use firefox sync and wanted to have different new tab behavior in each devices.

- Rated 4 out of 5by AnnoyedLeek, 2 years agoI am so glad I can finally redirect to my local web server for a custom home page. My major gripe is that opening a new tab does not clear the address bar, which is mildly infuriating. I understand that the extension settings state that Mozilla needs to fix the issue because they won't allow extension devs to change text selection in the address bar (citing a bug report filed a few years ago).
However, after reading through that bug report and clicking through to newer bug reports that cite the same issue, it seems Mozilla has changed their minds on that and now allows devs to implement this feature. I would love to see this implemented, as it would remedy my only issue!
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1426058 is the URL for the newer report. - Rated 4 out of 5by Ursula, 2 years ago
