On the updated version i see this, and as i just found, if i make it false on variant_a and variant_b its back to normal! Thanks for reply, never would've thought to search for this specific term

Hello

And, Uncentered homepage shortcuts, according to your screenshot. Take a look at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1937177 1 - Go to Configuration Editor for Firefox https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox 2 - Enter a search term browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabLayouts.variant What do you see?

Perhaps you are under Studies https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/shield Type about:studies into your address bar to see a list of your studies.

 Thank you SO much for posting this!! I did not like the new Homepage Links smaller tiles and wider spaces after the recent update (136.0 64bit) either and using this info and selecting False for variant-a & b reverted them back to before the update.
 HUGE thanks for posting this!!
