Is it possible to personalize the My Profile page in the same way it can be done on the My Home page?
I want to remove the default Web Parts and add other ones.
I don't want to use SharePoint Designer or edit any files manually.
Yes - the 'Site Actions' menu at the top-right of the page will allow you to add / remove web parts. Anyone with 'Full Control' over their own MySite (i.e. everyone) should be able to do this.

I have been looking for ways to hide the below links from my SharePoint site when we make it live (for everyone except admins - groups are created on AD ) but unfortunately, I can't find any option to do it. Any suggestions?
Assuming you are working on a modern SharePoint site -
you can edit the navigation links and enable Audience Targeting
then for each link you'll need to edit and add M365/Security groups
Here is a reference document - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/customize-the-navigation-on-your-sharepoint-site-3cd61ae7-a9ed-4e1e-bf6d-4655f0bf25ca
I have created a "Team Site" on SharePoint online. When I edit a site page, I am not able to view any option of adding a web part on the page. All I can see are following options. Please click the link to see the options. I don't see any web part option there.
I believe there are some features that need to be activated on this site collection. Does anybody know which features need to be activated here to enable web parts on the page?
Unfortunately, WebPart doesn't work in New Experience. You need to be in Classic View to add the WebPart.
You can't add web part to New experience mode Sharepoint page. At least not for now. But you can create a page in Classic mode, it's the same as it was in SP2013.
How to do it - Read this article
we have a custom page layout, and we want this:
When a new sub site is created by users, we want the default.aspx, AKA welcome page to be based on our custom page layout.
How can we do this?
Two options:
1) Create a custom web template and define a module for the welcome page. This obviously only works for that custom web template, but does not require code.
2) Create a web event receiver (e.g. WebProvisioned), apply it to site collection. In the code behind set the page layout of the welcome page to your custom page layout. This works for any template, but requires custom code.
Option 1 only works in a farm solution, option 2 should also work in a sandboxed solution I guess.
I believe you want this OOTB (Codeless).
Go to page (you want to make home page) set the layout. (you custom
layout).
Set this page as a home page.
Remove all data (lists, libraries, pages). except this page.
Save the site as site template(_layouts/savetmpl.aspx). If you are not finding the save as template option. Write the url.
After saving the template, you can
use the same template for all your sites. For creating subsites,
this should be add in list site template in settings. Let me know, I
can explain you more.

I want to customize the SharePoint 2013 online(office 365) "About me" linked page (personimmersive.aspx) to a custom look and feel.
Even clicking on any SPUser name, for ex in a list item modified by is "John Smith" if we click on it goes to about me page.
This page resides under mysite but I cannot see this page is SharePoint 2013 designer to edit, but modifying SharePoint pages in designer is not always the best way.
Can I just create a new page and redirect all Profile page request to that custom page?
IF I create app parts and edit the page I cannot edit the top portion of the page.
redirecting may not be a feasible approach, specially on the online versions
you can try to take advantage of web parts and css to do what you can
The biggest change is that you can’t edit the entire top portion of
the page. These used to be in a web part zone, and you could choose to
add/remove the web parts. Now they are fixed, with no ability to move
them around or change the parts.
We had removed the Activity Feed web part previously because we were
using Yammer newsfeeds and group feeds embedded throughout the site,
and this part always showed “No activities”. Now this is back again,
with no way to remove it, short of editing the page in SharePoint
Designer.
There are still web part zones on the bottom, but really the problem
is no control over the display of most of the top of the page.

There is personImmersive.aspx in SharePoint Designer, you should be able to find it in All Files. Just make sure you connect to [your_domain]-my.sharepoint.com instead of [your_domain].sharepoint.com.
you can't customize the page completely.However you can add custom web part and custom css to change the look and feel to a great extent.
#tiago duarte you can still remove the activity web part.This can be done using script editor webpart and hiding the complete block/div.
A client has created a site collection with many (hundreds) of subsites. The logo in on each subsite takes them to the subsites welcome page but what the client wants is to link to the very top site welcome page in the site collection. How is this done in the easiest way (instead of having to change manually on each site)? Powershell?
Thanks in advance.
You can change the link in the masterpage to accomplish this.
Open the masterpage in e.g. SharePoint Designer in Split mode. Select the logo and adjust the control SPLinkButton. The NavigateUrl value is default "~site". Change this to "~sitecollection". Save, check in and approve the masterpage.
