GrapheneOS is such a staple for me now. Been waiting for it to be released for the Pixel 8 since I got the phone at launch... it doesn't have the annoying search bar or the unmovable widget telling you the weather... Regardless of the security and privacy it offers... And its just pretty.
My gripe with the weather isn't that it's there, it's that it disappears sometimes for days and it's too small to click on it. I tried to fix this by adding a separate weather widget, but that means I now have 2 weathers on my home screen and I can't get rid of the one that doesn't work :/
Just use Pixel Tuner to get rid of icons from notification bar and a different launcher to customize your home screen.
I literally have nothing on my home screen. I use a quick swipe side bar with fav apps.
