Firefox groups concept.png
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:89.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/89.0
Steps to reproduce:
Hi! I use a lot of similar websites and I would love to be able to combine these together on the new tab page in some sort, like a group or a collection.
Actual results:
However, on Firefox desktop, there's currently no such option build in.
Expected results:
It would be great if Firefox Desktop edition could sync the collections from Firefox Mobile and show these on the New Tab Page. This seems like the most straightforward solution, but a simplified 'tabbed tile group' would be great too.
For instance, you could have one 'group' tile on the New Tab Page with links to YouTube, Vimeo, Liveleak and Netflix. This way, we can reduce the amount of rows required, and prevent cluttering when we have multiple pages with the same icon.
Groups are everywhere on mobile home screens already, and since Firefox Mobile has collections now too, it only makes sense to bring this feature to desktop.
I've attached a quick concept UI.
Cheers!

Ah, I wasn't able to find a duplicate myself. While my bug is also about collections - not just groups - I can understand why you marked it as a duplicate. Perhaps this will get things moving tho, thx!

Joris, if you have a mockup for collections tailored towards the new tab page, you can file it as a new bug or add an attachment to bug 1660185. Your mockup looked to me like folders, so I duped this bug.

You're absolutely right doing so! Since there are bugs for both groups and collections, this bug is essentially redundant.

Collection syncing between mobile devices and desktop PCs is a must for productivity and keeping things organized. I really want/need this implemented. So, I just created a concept/mockup for visualization purposes and attached to bug 1660185.
