I really dislike how in the latest firefox, opening a blank new tab the header and task bar now shows "New Tab" instead of the classic "Mozilla Firefox". Is there a way to set firefox to use the "Mozilla Firefox" title instead of "New Tab" by default when opening blank tabs?

Hi,

You can try to set the value of browser.newtab.url to about:blank or a site (e.g. mozilla.org) in about:config. You can also right-click and Reset it.
