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?

Sounds like a you problem. I've had custom dashboards be the default for all my devices (Several family phones, a couple kiosks around the house) and they have never reverted to Overview. Whatever is going on in your setup isn't normal

    This issue is, the default dashboard is done per client, not per user (I think they're changing this, or have done very recently??)

    So if you:

    • clear cookies
    • reinstall the app
    • clear app data
    • change your instance's ip/domain
    • set up a new device

    then it will revert to the stock "overview" dashboard.

    Of course, how often this happens depends on how often you do any of those things so for some it's not an issue, while for others it's a frequent annoyance
