Please make "pin" icons on New Tab page only visible on hover.

The pins that were added in version 139 (Linux) to mark which sites are pinned on the "New Tab" page, should have an OPTION to only show up ON HOVER. They make the page look ugly and uninviting. I spent some time looking for nice icons for websites I go to daily, then Firefox decides to spoil it one day by driving a push-pin into each.

I guess I will have to save the new tab page as html, remove those pins, and make it my home and new tab page. Then I can mess with the design to my heart's content - except I don't have TIME for this nonsense.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

I think this would be great, but I can see how it might be confusing for new users or those who aren't very tech-savvy. Having an option to customize that icon's behavior would be even better.

Strongly agree.

I don't need to know these pages are pinned - I was the one who put them there.

There is already the meatball menu that appears on hover, just bury the pushpin icon there.
