Option to use standard "new tab" instead of the Dashboard tag? #51

Sorry to bother as I'm sure you guys are insanely swamped but I'm using the latest Dissenter browser and I can't get my "new tab" to be the standard/blank new tab window that Chrome/Brave typically use. I've even tried a couple "New Tab" extensions that try to override your new tab (so I can at least make it DuckDuckGo.com or something) but even that doesn't work as I still see the Dashboard page for all new tabs.

Dashboard page I'm referring to:

PS: Thank you for all you guys are doing!

Also having this issue. I created an extension to replace my new tab page with a custom one I made, and while it works fine in Chrome, it unfortunately does not work in Dissenter. This is all that needs to be in the extension manifest to replace the new tab page:

{
  "manifest_version": 2,
  "version": "1.0",
  "name": "New tab page replacement",
  "chrome_url_overrides": {
    "newtab": "index.html"
  }
}

I'd love for this to be fixed, I'm currently in the process of migrating to Dissenter.

I've also had this issue, I'm unable to use new tab extensions in Dissenter.
