Oh good point, thanks for the heads up. I see that the last release was a few years ago and there are a lot of open issues. I haven’t had too many problems with it, but a launcher is something you don’t want to have security vulnerabilities for. Will look around for an alternative
Kvaesitso is pretty slick! I just tried it for a bit, and it looks well-written. I like having all my icons shrunk down and compressed on my desktop, so it’s not quite what I’m looking for, but I tried Discreet Launcher after your comment and was able to configure it pretty well to my liking. Still missing some features that I like from OpenLauncher but it has what I need
Nice :). It’s pretty basic but has just enough configuration options for what I need. It’s basically just an app drawer and favorites drawer, but you can set the favorites drawer to never close and the app drawer to never open.
The UI tools are pretty limited and I had to play around with a screenshot in GIMP and re-arrange the exported settings file in order to get my favorites ordered as desired (possible without doing that, but slow). But since setting it up everything has been pretty smooth
Is open launcher safe to use? It hasn’t been updated in a while

Glad I could help! I’m personally using Kvaesitso but nova launcher is neat too.

Oh nice! I might try out Discreet Launcher now just to see what it’s like lol

Yeah I would definitely agree that’s it’s basic. It’s very neat though, very minimal and clean. I’m glad it’s working good for you!
