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?

There is a lot of stuff in my sidebar that I don't know how to get rid of.
