You can set visibility conditions on components in a form based on the user profile. If you don’t want an entry component to be visible in a form, then set the visibility accordingly. In its place you can have a basic text component show instead.

It won’t be editable as long as you use a non-editable component to display it.

Text, Rich Text, Hint Text, Title, Headline, Big Number. Anything really, is long as it’s not some kind of editable entry component.
