I've been just not updating Nova as I haven't had a ton of time to research this, I really like the GUI, what are my privacy friendly/FOSS options for an android s21 5G?

Update: Went with Neo launcher. It's got enough of the features that I'm willing to use it.

There are a few spots where padding can't be removed that is obnoxious, FF search bar and dock are what I have noticed so far.

I also don't like that I can't continuosly scroll through my home screens.

Oof, purchased by an analytics company probably means they only want it for your/my information.

it now it’s under new management. Branch, a company that provides analytical data and metrics among other things, has acquired Nova Launcher.

Haha they don't even have to try because normies doesn't even care.
