crazy I had an issue with the launcher this weekend and sent a email like nothing..totally forget they laid everyone off...doh.

Ending up fixing the issue on my own tho. Layoff's in the current climate sucks and I hope everyone gets hired someone else.

Looks like RIP for really real now:

Here's Your Sign to Stop Using Nova Launcher

Kevin Barry, the founder and original developer of Nova Launcher is stepping away from the forever-loved Android launcher app. Why they are stepping away is an important question and goes back to Nova Launcher’s acquisition by Branch back in 2022. Originally, not much was supposed... #Android #Apps

So unfortunate!

I uninstalled it a couple of days ago. Kinda sad. Ran Nova for years, almost exclusively, on my LG phones.

I'll continue using it until whenever Google completely breaks it.

I've only ever known Nova really since it was launched. Sure, I've tinkered with a few others over time out of innate curiosity but nothing as ever come even close for me.

When it does finally bite the dust I've no idea what I'll do but it certainly won't be Microsoft Launcher or One UI.

That's a good conversation to start!

My needs are small & I don't require much from a launcher. I'll be fine with Samsung's UI. (Now if it was still TouchWiz...)

But I'll be interested in what others are thinking, incase I move away from Samsung.
