about:config --> browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.enabled true
about:blank with a dark theme is the only new tab experience I will ever use.

I mean I get that and I think many people on the Fediverse agrees, but I showed my girlfriend this picture with the red panda background and she's excited about this feature (and hence Firefox) because of a red panda.
Don't underestimate or undervalue catering to non-technical people. If we want Firefox to be adopted more widely, we need those people to enjoy the experience.
Same, probably, but I also appreciate the option.

I don't hate it, but the other options in the screenshot makes it seem like they're going for parity with Edge in terms of new tab customizability. I love my Firefox but over the long history of the project I feel like they've frequently chased the wrong trends.
Personally I always use the blank new tab page, so I bet this won't even work for me. 🙁
Same. I don't need anything on a new tab page, I just need to search in the URL bar. Maybe there'd be value if I could use the "tabs on other devices" thing as my new tab page.
Yeah, that would be handy. Good call.
Red Panda!

I use Bonjourr new tab page already
I’m one of the devs, always nice to find users in the wild! 🔥
This comment inspired me to try out Bonjourr. Absolutely love it so far. Keep the great work up!
Will do! Thank you 🙌
That's why I use tabliss - plus all the other customization and config.
@neme They should organize the menus in one place and add more overall customization options instead. Seems they just randomly jump in different directions ignoring their core users.
Yay speed improvenents?
I wonder if they'll implement stuff like this:
(Screenshot taken from the Android version of Firefox)
Mozilla seems to believe browsers are the destination, rather than a means of getting there.
does it work with animated images/videos?
They are bringing back personas?
I miss them so much!
I'd rather they fix the"Firefox is already running" bug
I have been waiting for this. Do you reckon this will put and end to Tabliss?
