I'm just baffled how anyone uses a stock launcher on ANY version of Android, from ANY era, on ANY device.
I have not used a stock launcher of any Samsung phone ever in over 15 yrs because they are all shit. And if it's not total shit, nxt yrs OS update will undoubtedly MAKE IT SHIT.
Rinse and repeat every year. God I feel sorry for you people. Having to have your settings erased and retrain your muscle memory every OS update. That isn't "fun". It isn't "fresh". It's annoying AF.
TouchWiz going to ONEUI didn't magically make me fall in love with it. Stock launchers are garbage, always have been. Especially with each subsequent update.
The whole Samsung ROM is a pile of shit
Yeah I was of the same mindset for a good while and generally rocked with Nova since forever.
But when that Branch shit came about I dabbled with Neo/KISS/Niagara/Kvaesitso Launchers (which Neo is still the default on my backup locker phone) and others but when I got this Poco F6 I found the system Launcher works fine....π€
Apart from this stupid thing which I think is more a "Xiaomi/HyperOS thing", and not the Poco Launcher per se
Something I have noticed thou over these years is I really don't spend too much time looking, or interacting with my Launcher so kinda don't care π
We're all entitled to opinions.
Some opinions are awful, though.

Never said, that my opinions are the only truth heh
You mean, there are valid opinions. And then there's this.
Yep, I like Nova too.
Nova Launcher is the best
not even close
