Hi, you can use our No new tab betas now, if you like. They don't take over the new tab page. https://tridactyl.cmcaine.co.uk/betas/nonewtab/

Thanks for making rg, I use it most weeks :)

@cmcaine Thanks! I tried the latest version (1.17.1), but it looks like the newtab behavior hasn't changed? I tried using set newtab about:newtab, but that seems to open a new additional window for every new window I have open.

(I do have native enabled.)

@BurntSushi You want the special betas from here: https://tridactyl.cmcaine.co.uk/betas/nonewtab/

Unfortunately, if we ask for permission to overwrite the new tab page, we have to use it. And we can't give away that permission, so no value of set newtab will let us use the original about:newtab. So we have to ship a different version of the webextension.

The steps are:

1. Install the webextension from the above link (you may just get prompted when you click the link or you may need to download the XPI and then add it manually in about:addons (cog-icon, install add-on from file))
2. Disable the other copy of tridactyl

Good luck!

Ah thanks! And yeah, I had installed the special beta. The key step I was missing was disabling the old copy of tridactyl. That works!

Great!
