Is there a way to remove the autopopulated dashboards from the sidebar? Not per device. (lemmy.ca)

I never asked for "Lights" or "Security" and many other boards in my sidebar. Even worse, they seem to be getting more. Home Assistant used to feel clean to me, now I get Facebook vibes and a touch of devs way overstepping.

I read the only absurd solution is per device hiding of useless unremoveable dashboards and yet find users for years now asking to remove crap-dashs for good.

I have only one user (admin) and webinterface and would never ever like to see this ugliness again. I think it is overbearing, intrusive and invasive as Home Assistant doesnt give choice anymore to the user.

How can i fully remove the dashboards Lights, Security, Climate and Energy?

You could definitely compile your own version of Home Assistant stripping those configurations from the codebase. Enjoy!

Why would you guys want to delete those configurations??? How would you expect to reinstall them in the case of wanting them back????

Would you like to uninstall ZHA too? Why not the entire WebUI? Yeah!! Let's get rid of all the bloat!!

I never use the letter Q, so I demand it being stripped out of all keyboards!! BLOAT!!

Do you guys even think twice about the things you like getting angry about??

    Your quirky quest to quit using quizzical words is quite strange...

    I'd expect that a dashboard / sidebar item could be available only if that module was installed - like Integrations for example.

    I use the Energy but not Climate, but in the future I might install it, likewise I might remove an existing one.

    I don't see this as a big problem, but I do agree that automatically adding them can be annoying with multiple phones / tablets / etc.

    I guarantee if they went the other way and only offered a stripped down dashboard with little configurability people would also be complaining that they can't customize things to best suit their needs.
