Bro it was a mistake, forget it :-)

I stumbled across this today. Is it still being updated? Github suggests it's still active but the latest release in IzzyOnDroid seems to be from 2022.

It not that much. I need some idea

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I think it would be a huge improvement to drop the text under the icons (or at least show the full names). The ellipses would drive me crazy lol

Yeah, Neo Launcher is really good. Even though its still in its beta right now, the full release is coming soon. I consider it an upgrade over Lawnchair, and honestly probably the best open alternative to Nova (rip) overall.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’m a Nova Launcher user and thoroughly happy with it.

So was everybody until they were bought by an advertising company and fired nearly everyone working on the project.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Wow. That sucks. Why would an advertising company buy them, though? Seems odd.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Mostly to put data trackers and harvest your data to sell it, and it wasn't an advertising company, it was an analytics company called Branch

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

So did they ever implement any of that? If so, as of what version?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)
  1. It's not open source.
  2. I don't think they would openly say that
[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Ah. Okies. Well, I’m using version 8 and it’s fine no intention of going to newer. And some devices are using older versions.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I use it for a while. I really liked the RSS feed reader

I don't remember why I stopped but I think I maybe had some stability issues?
