Alternative to Nova Launcher - lemm.ee

As the title states, I have used Nova launcher for years. As it is the most feature rich, most customizable launcher that supports basically everything I could need from it. However I am looking to switch away from it. What launchers are you all using? I have tried a handful of them and none quite fit the bill. And one feature nova has but no other launcher seems to is invaluable to me; that feature being able to swipe up or down on an app on the home screen to launch another app or task. It’s how I keep my main page from being cluttered. I have tried Neo Launcher [https://github.com/NeoApplications/Neo-Launcher] which I love, but it doesn’t seem to be updated anymore. I have also tried: * Kvæsitso [https://github.com/MM2-0/Kvaesitso] * Kiss Launcher [https://kisslauncher.com/] * Lunar Launcher [https://github.com/iamrasel/lunar-launcher] * Trebuchet [https://github.com/LineageOS/android_packages_apps_Trebuchet] - I am on LineageOS 21 So the only option I am feeling is gonna work is Nova but I am trying to ditch as many closed source, data thieving apps and services as possible. I could however just use AFWall+ to block internet connection. Any suggestions?

Neo-Launcher is still being worked on, they are expecting to push version 1.0 later this year to GitHub, but progress has been steady from what I know. You can get the latest beta version of Neo-Launcher from their Telegram to try out. Don’t let the “beta” part turn you off, it’s basically production ready, I’ve been using it now as my launcher for well over a year, possibly even 2 at this point.
