How can I lock my screen so it will not add stuff I don't want?
After browsing the internet, i find new stuff on my screen. Then I have to spend time deleting all the shortcuts I don't want. I have the home screen set the way I want it and don't want it to arbitrarily add short cuts I don't want or need. I hate it when it messes up what I have set.

The homepage settings allow disabling "recent activity".
For the actual shortcut tiles, if you set the number of rows to your linking, and fill all the sites in these rows, nothing new will be added. It's only the empty slots that are populated from your frequently visited sites.
If neither of that fits your workflows, you can chime in here: connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/please-split-quot-sites-you-save-and-visit-quot-into-two-options/idi-p/12734
I have the same problem, BUT I also have the problem that some of my pins just randomly disappear which then enables random new ones to appear. So at first glance it all looks normal. Then I try to find a pin and it has moved. Then I have to search for the culprit pin that isn't supposed to be there. Then I have to figure out which one disappeared. Then I wonder what the point of pinning websites is if it causes more work than just typing in the first part of the web address and letting it auto fill. In my mind, this should be like a bulletin board. I pin something to it and it stays there until I remove it. Nothing else goes on my bulletin board unless I add it. Nothing moves unless I move it. Isn't this supposed to be MY "bulletin board" and NOT Mozilla's???
