Hello πŸ‘‹

Disclaimer I would switch to try grapheneos if I could currently my phone from Verizon apparently can not have it's bootloader unlocked so...

I am looking for launcher suggestions that are maybe less intrusive if that's possible. I mostly just want to get rid of the Google search at the bottom and the 'at a glance' at the top of the home page I can't figure it out.

Edit: forgot my phone model 'Pixel 8 Pro'

I wish it had folders in the app drawer

Yeah, it lacks a lot of features. Feeds don’t work either.

Not a fan of feeds and I don't need them but I get its annoying for some people. I can't find a good launcher with folders, up to date and with some customization

Most foss launchers I’ve tried are terrible. LawnChair is the only one that stood out the most.

I used https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.saggitt.omega before realizing it's 2 years old. The only one I've found with folders

You mean folders as in sections?

  • Games
  • Social
  • Productivity

Something like that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

Folders in the app drawer or app list (depends on how you call it)
