  The user guide include this: https://docs.civicrm.org/user/en/latest/the-user-interface/menu-dashboard-and-dashlets/#dashlets
  This looks like it's referring to https://example.com/civicrm.  That's where I got the idea that there should be a button for "Configure Your Dashboard".

It definitely needs updating. See one of the demos for what it currently looks like, e.g. https://dmaster.demo.civicrm.org

  Where did you see that there *should* be such a button? There's the "available dashlets" collapsed accordion, but I don't remember there ever being a configure button.
  
  Also what does homepage mean to you? You set the homepage in the CMS so it could really be any page on a given site. There is the url `https://example.com/civicrm`, which is the civi "dashboard", which I'm referring to above. There is also the "civi user dashboard" at `https://example.com/civicrm/user`, which is not configurable, but there is a built-in extension you can enable called "User Dashboard" which gives a little settings icon in the top right.
