Thanks for the feedback. A few comments on what you said:

For communities that don't have apps this is an optional feature so if you do not want to use it you do not have to. We can explore making it optional for app communities as well if that turns out to be what people want. Deleting the content altogether would actually delete the content from the app as well so we wouldn't want that to happen. But maybe a setting to not display it to mobile web users.

As for the news section, that's definitely a feature we could explore adding. We also have received similar feedback to add article and video support inside the center section so it isn't just categories. That should allow communities to create experiences that are more specific to their needs as not all use categories in the same way.
