I deleted nova launcher from my device after seeing this: https://lemmy.ca/post/19914345

Can anybody recommend alternatives?

I'm not saying everyone needs an iOS circa 2015 interface.

But I am saying something like KISS would never work, because the general public will just outright reject it.

What needs to exist is something in between: something simple and easy to use at stock, but with high customization ability that ranges from novice to advanced users.

Unfortunately, it seems most of the GUI experts work in the private industry and rarely do FOSS.
