I'm using a local html file as a start page in Safari right now, and used the same file on Windows (Firefox) just a few months ago.

I believe Firefox and Chrome do not allow you to set a local html file as a new tab page. You can set it as a home page but then you need to manually navigate to it after creating a new tab.

I use Chrome. I build a static HTML file and have set a New Tab page policy[1] in my paid Google Workspace[2] admin console to use this static HTML file via a file:// URL.

Now I had to try. I can make Firefox to open my Startpage whenever I open a new window, but not for each new tab. Chrome only as the first window after I start the browser. (MacOS)
