@johnpeterm “Open Textbook News” comes from the Pressbooks Textbook plugin. I don’t know if this works for Pressbooks Textbook but in core you can turn off our feed by visiting Network Admin → Settings → Dashboard and unchecking “Display Feed”.

Your second request is not possible at this time. You would need to write some code to do so.

Thank you @ned. Could you point the location of the code.
