Allow changing the new tab page to a custom URL

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I find I am dissapointed in the ability to change the new window page, but not the page when a new tab is opened.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like the ability to change the URL of the new tab page.

Describe alternatives you've considered Having an option to keep the new tab page as the same setting as the new window page.

Additional context N/A

Dear BrowserWorks,

I just switched to Waterfox from Librewolf so please add this little feature that I heavily rely upon. This browser used to have config browser.newtab.url option but has been removed I guess.

Other similar browsers have about:config option where I can change newtabpage.override.url floorp,librewolf they all have this option.

Nevermind....adding this config made this possible so I thought I'd post this for anyone looking to change new tab page Type about:config in the url bar and type this browser.newtab.url select string option and paste your preferred website in the new empty box
