What's the appeal of all these alternative launchers? Stock launcher works fine and I've never felt like anything was missing. I'm a poweruser on PC but I can hardly think of anything I'd want to do with a phone along poweruser lines.

Consistency between devices. Android isn't android, everyone mucks with it, especially Samsung.

Yeah, I used Nova on all of my phones before I got a Pixel... The stock Android experience is decent enough that I haven't felt the need for a third party launcher yet.
