Niagara. Beautiful and efficient. Truly a step above other launchers.
+1 for Niagara.
Used Nova for years. But after the sale, I quickly said goodbye to it. Niagara is so strong that I don't even miss Nova.
I use Niagara now and absolutely love it, although it took some getting used to. It's very much minimalistic compared to Nova (I used Nova for many years before Niagara, but switched when they were bought).
Niagara users unite! I was on Nova for years until the 'troubles'. Niagara is a solid replacement, if very different.
I agree with this completely.
Is there a FOSS alternative to Niagara?
Kiss launcher is kinda like it
I've tried it before, I think I just went back to Niagara after a few minutes, I'll try it again.
Also try Kvaesitso
Kiss takes a while to get used to, but once the apps in your history start getting sorted correctly (mine is by "accessed frequently"), you barely need to search for apps anymore. All your most used apps accessible in 2 clicks.
Unfortunately not. I looked thoroughly for one.
The simplicity is lovely.
But it is not only simplicity it is beauty and usability.
