Is there a way to not see "Recently added contacts"?

Is there a way to not see recently added contacts?  When I upgraded to S21 all my contacts appear in a recently added list and my contact list. Any info would be appreciated.

@MarkB22 They will automatically drop off the recently added list as time passes.

Thank you. I thought that they would, but it's been about a year.

I'm having a similar issue. If i add a new contact, it stays as recently added for months.
