Why can't I use your new tab with the cool link boxes as my home page?
I really like the new 'new tab' which gives me my bookmark pages right there in front of me. I would like it to come up when I log in as my home page but I can't find a way to make that happen. Can anyone help?

With Firefox 41 (and higher), it's no longer possible to customize the page shown in a new tab via changing the preference browser.newtab.url in about:config. Because of the fact that hijackers abused the preference in the past, Mozilla decided to remove it (see bug 1118285). Fortunately, by removing it, Mozilla also introduced a new API to bring this functionality back to life as an add-on. This add-on allows the user to choose a certain page in a new tab.
