Adding the following code block to one's userContent.css file will remove the clutter:

/* removing clutter from new tab */
@-moz-document url("about:privatebrowsing") {
    .promo {
      display: none !important;
    }
    .info {
      display: none !important;
    }
    .logo-and-wordmark {
      display: none !important;
    }
    .search-inner-wrapper {
      display: none !important;
    }
}

(instructions how to find end edit the file are essentially the same as for userChrome.css, which can be found in this fantastic answer https://powerusers.codidact.com/posts/285411/285412#answer-285412)
