Steps to reproduce:

I have removed the speed dial extension you are using for privacy reasons and want to use the firefox speed dial.

The problem is that the firefox speed dial is very basic and does not allow me to customise it to the pages I want. Currently the web pages are added automatically, for example, the most visited pages.

It should be possible to add only the pages I want. This is a feature that I'm sure many firefox users need.

Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Actual results:

I can't manually add the pages I want and I have to customise the pages that appear automatically on the speed dial one by one.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'WebExtensions::Untriaged' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Product: Firefox → WebExtensions

Looks like a new tab bug, though though I don't really understand it, perhaps new tab folks would.

Component: Untriaged → New Tab Page
Product: WebExtensions → Firefox

The reporter is asking for a way to only see manually added websites on the new tab tiles.

This is already possible; click the Personalize button in the upper-right corner and uncheck all options. Then choose your own tiles in the other slots (and pin them).

If this is not sufficient, then you can install an extension that customizes the new tab page.

Hi Jonatan,
This could be a good enhancement, hopefully it will be taken into consideration in the future. Let's wait their confirmation.

I'll mark this Enhancement as New for visibility.

Regards,
Jerónimo.

Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true

I don't understand what the enhancement request here is.
Going off of what :robwu wrote, it's true you can add tiles of websites of your choosing. Marking as a WONTFIX for now.
