chrome://new-tab-page-third-party is the current new tab page, and it's quite basic, even if through no fault of our own. Users are likely to get the impression they must enable extensions to change it. In reality, it is possible to work around this by making a JSON file in /etc/trivalent/policies/managed/ which contains something like this:
{
"NewTabPageLocation": "chrome://new-tab-page"
}The above would change it to the standard Chrome new tab page, with the hardcoded Google logo and login integration.
Alternatively, we could find a more user-friendly way to expose this as an option, or work on improving chrome://new-tab-page-third-party in some way so there would be less incentive to change it
