Reduced tile size

[BlueStrayCat]

The new reduced tile size is dreadful and means the identifying text beneath the tiles is now partially absent.  I am trying to restore the original size but with no success so far.

Did anyone actually think about this design change before imposing it?

Agree. It also doesn't make sense. I can't think of a reason for the change. I would undertand if they increased the amount of tiles and reduce the size to fit everything, but that isn't a option. It changed just because.

Changing "newtabLayouts.variant-b" worked temporarily. The option would change back after I restart the browser.

Even removing the relevant study in "about:studies" wasn't enough. Small icons kept comming back.

Finally I got tired of trying and just deactivate studies flat out in the browser preferences. That did the trick.
