My essential Firefox fixes in 2022

I'd just like my default start/home/new tab page to be my bookmarks. Not my recent bookmarks, not my most visited, not ads. Just a simple scrollable list of my bookmarks and folders.

You can set home to

    chrome://browser/content/places/places.xhtml

Unfortunately changing new tab to a custom page is no longer possible.

Was looking for how to do this when I switched back to FF from Chrome! Seems there's also these in that folder:

    chrome://browser/content/places/bookmarksSidebar.xhtml
    chrome://browser/content/places/historySidebar.xhtml

I ended up writing my own newtab page that lists selected bookmarks folders by recent. https://github.com/Zren/NewTabRecentBookmarks
