Is anyone good with Javascript? I need a hand

Something like this should work, although it’s a bit of a blunt instrument in that it will fire on every page change. Ideally we would want to find a way to only run it on the homepage (perhaps using the url that’s passed in onPageChange.)

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.4">
api.onPageChange((url, title) => {

    // This is your existing code
    $('td.category .ember-view a').each(function() {
        if ($(this).hasClass('link-fixed')) {
            return;
        }
        // do it only if there's subcategories
        if ($(this).parents('td.category').find('div.subcategories').length) {
            var link = $(this).prop('href');
            $(this).prop('href', link+'/none');
        }
            
        $(this).addClass('link-fixed');
    });

});
</script>

Would also be better to put it before </body> rather than </head>.
