Comment on What launcher should I replace Nova with?

  I just got a new phone and I’m trying Kvaesitso to move away from Nova, but I just can’t get used to it.

  I think I just really like the paradigm of having a ‘desktop’ where I can freely arrange my most used apps in a specific layout, and Kvaesitso - by intentional deaign choice - doesn’t allow it.

  Which is really a shame for me because I love the ethos, I love the open-source approach, and I love that it’s a wholly original launcher rather than a fork of the stock or anything else.

  A great launcher for some I’m sure, but to me it’s like even after I unlock the device I’m still stuck in something that feels like a lock screen to me, and I feel weirdly trapped and claustrophobic.

  Not sure why it makes me feel that way, but it does!

    Ah yeah it’s not for everyone. I like having a clean homescreen and call things up as I need them so it works for me. I make use of the tagging too.
