Wanna get rid of "Take a quick tour" message on home screen. wasting visual space

How can I get rid of the "Take a quick tour" section on my Kobo Forma.


If i recall, in the past, after you go through the tour, it disappears. But these days, I've gone through the "quick tour" but it persists.

I don't think i found anything in pgapatch that gets rid of this.

This is how the kobopatch.sh appears:
