Android Firefox showing recent websites on homepage when 'recently visited' is unchecked

I've previously asked this question but it has been archived without any action. I have the current Android Firefox installed, my homepage setting has 'recently visited' UNCHECKED, but the homepage is adding all my recently, or possibly 'frequently visited' visited, pages! Swipe sideways to show even more of them. The only thing that should be on my homepage are shortcuts - things that I wanted to pin - since the specifically unticked 'recently visited'. This is a privacy issue as well as just a bug. Please fix this urgently. I've also put this on my review on Play store as I consider it something that needs attention...
