And I want to see my friends when I am on my home page---not a bunch of shit from people/groups I am not intentionally following. I need a cleaner interface.

Okay-- I see now. Type first; hit "reply" after.🤦

but how?

Me too. I am glad you are here to test it out with me.
This is the second time I have written a response--I don't know how to post it :)

Me too... I'm glad you are here so I can have someone to interact with in order to test out the interface.
