Hello 👋
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
Switching the launcher will almost do ZERO for your privacy. Just to let you know.
Anyhow, you could check out the “F-Droid” App Store, which is populated with the most privacy respecting open source apps out there. It also has some launchers.
Or you could at least check apps on Exodus for trackers.
I figured it wouldn’t do much or anything for privacy but figured it would be worth an ask. Thanks
I use Discreet Launcher on the same phone
I know It’s not FOSS but I love Niagara Launcher maybe give it a shot and if you want to you can just cut off it’s internet access
If you want something completely different check out the KISS launcher or Kvaesito.
Yes, there are many options.
I saved a thread a while back when I was looking for a new launcher too.
If you want something minimalistic, you can try mine: Mere Launcher
