"Read more" button, need help!
-
So I run temporalcerebral.wordpress.com, please, take a look!
All decent themes I selected always display the its whole content in the home page, but I don’t really want that… I have some huge stuff in my blog!
I would like to have those shorts version of my posts on the Home, with the “read more” button for the ones interested… How do I do that/
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no automatic setting you can activate that applies.
The setting here > Settings > Reading is only for the RSS Feed summary and does not affect the posts.
If you want to display only excerpts on the front page of the blog followed by read more links, you can insert “the more tag” into each post prior to publication.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/Alternatively, you can switch to using a theme that automatically displays front page excerpts. This is a list of only SOME active themes on WordPress.com that use the excerpt instead of full post content. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/theme-with-automatic-excerpts?replies=13#post-1396410
To control the number of posts displayed on the front page go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading
Blog pages show at most _ posts

I tried to on my theme, but it doesn’t work, so I have to manually insert a more tag. So it is theme dependent.
The other thing you could try is in Dashboard
Settings –> Reading –> For each article in a feed, show
For each article in a feed, show –> SummaryBut that one didn’t work on my theme either … let us know how you got on :)
