How can I get a Minimalist Experience in Copilot/ Bing?

I am new to Bing and started using it for the AI capabilities. BUT I find the interfaces very noisy, cluttered and busy. And I'm still confused by all the different login prompts for each tool. I've searched around and asked AI but could not find a solution, so far. Is it possible to customize for my user experience as follows:

COPILOT: I want a clean screen with ONLY the New Topic text box and no other unnecessary boxes like 'create' 'cooking' 'code' etc... If I need that stuff, I can ask for it. Also, why is the text box so small and always way down at the bottom? Can I have it centered and bigger?

BING: I don't care about any news, weather, etc.  I want a clean, minimal experience with just my necessary search box, recent sites, and whatever apps I may want.

LOGIN: Can I not login once to Microsoft and be automatically in other tools like this chat, etc.. I am asked for a PIN sometimes, then a password, etc.. when I am already logged in another window. 

One more thing re: LOGIN. Is there a way to merge profiles? It keeps asking me to create another profile, even though I am logged in already. Now I have one here in this CommunityHub, and another one in https://account.microsoft.com/ and one in 365. I won't even go near Teams LOL. Very confusing.

So, that's Minimal UX and Single Login for all.

Is this possible? It seems to me that Microsoft has Yahooish vibes 😉 with way too much stuff going on for my liking. I want focus, and one purpose.  FYI I'm not a coder, and I use 3 different devices, so I'd love to customize the way I need and sync that so I don't have to keep adjusting. If not, I won't use this as my main search and would just have to use only when I want AI.

I'm used to a cleaner experience and hope I can have that while using your great AI tools. Need focus, not noise.  Any tips from power uses would be greatly appreciated.
