Question Can I just completely hide the Portal?

[Ondrashek06]

I do not give a single damn about what threads do admins like enough to promote them so it appears on the home page, I just want the forums when I type gbatemp.net. Can I please "customize my portal" so it's literally just a link to the forums?

just save this link to your bookmarks: https://gbatemp.net/forums/

how hard is that to do

My muscle memory is just too used to typing gbatemp.net in the address bar.

if you clear your browser info to get rid of the search suggestions, then type in the /forums address, it'll auto complete it for you whenever you do it again. Alternatively, there's stuff like this if you really want to be lazy: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/redirector/ocgpenflpmgnfapjedencafcfakcekcd?hl=en

Or you can edit your portal using the site's customisation options to put the notes box at the top and edit a link to the forums in? There's plenty of options here.

The mobile site doesn't allow editing of the portal; mobile is the thing I mostly use gbatemp on.

You have to edit it on desktop, but the results carry over to mobile:

You could make a home screen icon for gbatemp.net/forums. It'll take you right there.

Just add the forum section on your mobile browser as a icon on your home screen of your phone, or bookmark it.

I am personally shocked that someone views the forum index instead of https://gbatemp.net/new/ and maybe the one or two sub forums they are interested in. This place has had too many subforums and activity for me to want to go from an index since before the DS was a thing and definitely after that.
