Why did you delete my pinned tiles in Firefox?

Postby Kessl » May 16th, '24, 18:55

When opening a new firefox tab, I used to see about 10 pinned tiles.
After I tried Mageia all I see is single pinned tile linking to Mageia Homepage and all other pinned tiles are deleted.
What the hell?
I am ok with adding a link if you must, but deleting all pinned tiles?
That is not nice and really pisses me off right now!!!
What I really want to say might conflict with the law, but be asured, I am thinking it anyways!

Welcome to our forum.
Sorry, I dont understand.
If this is your first try of Mageia and launch of Firefox, what did you expect?
Or had you several, how did you add them, and when later launching Firefox they were gone?
Have you set Firefox to synchronise with your Firefox account?

OP refers to the default new tab page. Although there's no reason to get so angry about stuff like that.
The new tab page is not the default start page, as we open the Mageia page as default, but that can be changed easily.

See e.g. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/th ... -them-back
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1208448
https://support.mozilla.org/gl/questions/1179139

FWIW I can't reproduce, the new tab page works just fine, like OK expects.
