Setting my HomePage to the default Firefox homepage, but not on private view?

I have reviewed support pages for setting help on setting HomePage. My issue is that when I open FireFox it defaults to a private page versus the HomePage showing suggested web pages etc. My settings are set to Firefox Default Home page.

Private view would seem to indicate that Fx does not use any settings that would be default or any personal adjustments, so that when the private mode closes and wipes recent use it does not interfere with default or personal settings ??

Hello ty for responding. I occasionally use private but 99% pf the time I open Firefox, then I have to select the home button on top left to open the main Firefox home page. This is the step that is annoying. I've checked homepage settings and privacy settings. I don't see a option to turn off privacy so I can only select it when I want it. Ty all for reviewing my issue.
