The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Fenix::Homepage' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
This seems to have been resolved. Possibly a server side issue which was pushing more sponsored links, but the limit should also be enforced at device level.

Thanks very much for the report! You are correct. The service that returns sponsored shortcuts had been updated to return more shortcuts for clients to choose from and the client was not filtering the additional sponsored shortcuts to display. This definitely wasn't intentional, and we've remedied this server-side, so your homepage should be returning to normal very soon. Do let us know if this is still happening after 1-2 hours because this isn't the experience we want for people using Firefox.

We will add a guard against displaying more than 2 sponsored top sites in Bug 1944888.
