  Hi there,

  You can set the number of blog posts showing on your homepage by going to My sites > Settings > Writing, under Content types section, change the number in the textbox of the Blog posts setting.

  This changes will apply to all pages including the category pages.

  To set a pre-defined number of posts to show on certain pages, perhaps you can consider using the Display Posts Shortcode with the posts_per_page option.
