Site Name (left side menu)

I love that the “Howdy, user” with the “edit profile” and logout link remains on the right side. What I’d like to do is totally remove the [Site Name] menu on the left side. It only shows a “Profile” link, which is redundant, and clicking the site tries to take the user to the backend, which results in a permissions error since the user is a Subscriber.

I hope that made sense.

So, is there a easy way to completely hide the left-side menu from subscribers?
