I'm using Lawnchair because I wanted to change the default search engine in the search bar on the home screen. I might switch back to Pixel Launcher if they make it customizable.

I'm using lawnchair because it was the only good one i found on f-droid. Main reason I changed was to remove the bloody search bar from the home screen...

Lawnchair here too!

Is there a current version of it? Can't find a version that I can install. Play Store says Lawnchair 2 has been developed for an older version of Android and thus can't be installed and besides that the latest release I can find on GitHub is 6 years old.

I installed the older version on a older phone, then once your account has it in the install history, it allows to install on later versions

I'm getting APKs from the dev builds on GitHub.

I use Lawnchair V2. V2 is no longer supported, there is now 12.1 (I think) that they have out but it isn't in any repos. That may be what you need.
