found this launcher last week and I've been playing with it since.
It still works with "muscle memory" but instead of placement, it's the gesture (or direction) that triggers the action. With time it can become quicker and easier, i think, than lawnchair, eblan &c or search based launchers
Started with Niagara so many years ago, never thought I could find a suitable open alternative then joyfully discovered Olauncher been using that for long time. Phone without icons is pure bliss, elegance and far easier to use/find apps
