After I noticed Firefox has removed the Pocket branding but kept the Pocket stories, I also noticed the settings screen on the homepage no longer lets you disable sponsored stories or links.

Firefox 115:

Firefox 139:

You can still remove these advertisements, but you have to leave the homepage and dig through the settings to find that option.

    This post shows me how it’s fucked?

    1. Removing bullshit from the home page is great. Reduce clutter.
    2. You can still disable it in the settings (where settings belong).

    🤷‍♂️ I don’t see it.
