What's so special about launchers? I fail to see its or understand what it does, and if I should change mine?
I'm just a fussy bastard, and I like everything to be 'just so' on my computers and phones. If I want to move a zig, I'm gonna find a way to move that zig.
Launchers allow you to have a customised UI, maybe you don't want to have a Google search bar in you home screen, the default UI doesn't allow you to change it, a launcher does. What about changing order of icons, maybe you want your icons to shape the capital letter F, with a launcher you can, or you know that real gangstas use IBM Plex Mono instead of Roboto, you ain't nobody's bitch, a launcher helps you with that
On a shield Android TV, the official launcher show ads for stupid shows. I don't want any of that crap and want to organize apps the way I like.
I changed mine finally after Google kept adding shit to the search bar, specifically AI stuff. And it was conveniently placed right where my thumb had pressed prior to the implementation of this new shitty feature.
I went from the stock Google launcher on Pixel (still using my 6a, til it dies) to Lawnchair. Lawnchair is essentially the stock Google launcher, but I could get rid of stupid features. It looks and performa nearly identically.
Launchers are your homescreen and app overview. There's basically two kinds of launchers, app grid and app list. And hundreds of iterations over them: some have only the grid (no widget area), some have categories and auto-sort, some are just a text list, others have fancy animations (Niagara), some want to predict what you use next, some have a special integration of a app/feature/network. Stuff like that.
