Hide Likes or put comments

Hey guys,

so, in the articles page of my blog, next to the excerpt of every article it shows the date it was published and under it shows a heart for likes.

Q1: How could I remove that from there?

Q2: How could I change that to show the number of comments from that article (and another icon to go with it)?

thanks in advance!
