I replaced Nova with Kvaesitso and honestly its pretty awesome.

Its more limited than Nova was but it meets my use cases. The biggest adjustment was using labels to filter things instead of using folders, which I've actually come to like better.

But plenty of customizations for everything else you mentioned and more.

It's not wrong, it's just generally offensive since colloquially "it" refers to objects rather than a individual.

And as it follows, "it" is used as a insulting term when people want to dehumanize something.

Also it's "They go" and "I go", perfectly serviceable for singular use.

I like to categorize my apps. In Nova I have them divided into Web / Media / Games / Tools / System and I can swipe between each page (horizontally) of them. I use quite a few apps to do a lot of things tho, so *shrug.

I also really like the Sesame search integration, Lawnchairs adaption of Pixel Launchers is good. But there is style and behavior customization that Nova offers that Lawnchair doesn't.

I am pretty particular about making my phone just look and behave the way I want it, of course it changes over time as phones and apps get better but yeah.... It's largely why I preferred Android from the start and have stuck with it

Lol nah. I tried it recently. Lawnchair is lacking in so much customization compared to Nova it's kind of appalling to compare them imo.

That being said, if you are ok with the Pixel launcher and pretty basic / generic customizations Lawnchair is a pretty awesome app.

That's the case in doing it too early in animals as well, especially noticable in larger breeds. There's been a longtime pushback for dogs to get spayed / neutered at later ages, than one size fits all.

Also there are other interesting studies that differ between humans and animals, such as the lifespan of animals that are neutered / spayed tends to be longer than the other way around, and supposedly in humans it's the opposite.

I didn't do a ton of vetting when I was researching the information though, so I don't know how well the studies were controlled and what they accounted for.

Edit: Also some vets do offer vasectomies as an alternative to neutering, but it is usually far more expensive.
