@SanskritFritz the recent apps list is a built-in #KISSLauncher feature

Thanks for your recommendation! I have heard of PlainApp but totally forgot the name of it!

Decided to write about how I setup my #HomeScreen on my phone!

Using #KISSLauncher, #Arcticons and some other neat apps

My Home Screen (2026)

Decided to write and share the current home screen setup on my phone! Featuring KISS Launcher, Arcticons and a few more cool apps

Changed my #wallpaper because #zelda looked way too cute here

It's actually an official background from #Nintendo heh

Using #KISSLauncher of course

Oh, and if I don't like an icon coming from the theme I can always revert to the default icon for that one app in #KissLauncher ❤️

When I was using the stock launcher, F-Droid apps never showed up there for me. Aurora store apps did, though.
I wasn't on GOS, though, but I'd imagine it was a similar issue. Not sure the cause.

I just use #KISSLauncher now.

Still enjoying #SmartphoneMinimalism.

The only #Fedi application I have on my phone is [FediPhoto-Lineage], which is upload-only.

Ok, I do have one more: I have Pixelix connected only to my Pixelfed in the rare case I need to post something that's not a photo (FediPhoto doesn't let you upload already-taken photos or screenshots, nor does it have a share-to screen), but it's blocked from coming up in my #KissLauncher history, and I almost never use it. So far, I've resisted any temptation to just scroll on it.

#ScreenTime for the past week on my phone has been 6h 38m. :D
My battery is lasting two full days, easily, and that's with only charging it to 80% and never letting it get below 20%, and some background processes running.

FediPhoto-Lineage | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

FediPhoto-Lineage - quickly post photos to the Fediverse.

Olauncher. Minimal AF Launcher - Apps on Google Play

Minimalist launcher to reduce your screen time. Daily wallpapers. Zero ads..

Blackberry is long gone, and blackberrry-style phones usually run some flavor of Android, likely with Google's "AI" slop.

I can highly recommend using a FOSS Android build like GrapheneOS or #IodéOS (easier to use, IMHO), but you likely will need a pixel phone. There may be something available for your phone model, though.

Another option would be to install f-droid and try out a #FOSS android launcher. I'm keen on #KISSLauncher, but it's an acquired "taste."

Have you tried #KISSLauncher? That's been working well for me.

#hsbc you are one big pain in all the wrong places. My phone, my wish, & BTW my money you are holding. You have no right to tell me which app I use and how I use it. Your own app uses accessibility and you are preaching that other apps should not use it. I am sick and tired of your doing.

Y will u not work with other keyboards? Who r u 2 say d built in keyboard is d right one? It tracks & keeps sending data to foogle.
