Try Pear launcher.

If Neo launcher gets forked or revived then that would have the features you want, but it was left unfinished and undeveloped.

The words I want to learn about aren't in a "normal" dictionary. Urban dictionary always delivers.

100%

I stuck with Neo for ages waiting for updates to fix the last few issues.....and they never came. Neo would be perfect if someone forked it and continued development.

Bullshit. Adults absolutely care. It's human nature to try to project your status in the social hierarchy. That takes different forms and may instead be projecting status with a Stanley flask or Canada Goose jacket, or whatever.

 

There are lots of good FOSS options.

I would strongly recommend checking this site for the trackers in an app if you're at all concerned about privacy. Links to each app's exodus privacy report is also at the end of the table linked above.

FYI, Nova has been owned by a data mining company for many years and it is worth moving away from even if you think it is good enough now and doesn't need updates.

For those coming looking for alternatives, this mega comparison chart is what I used to select an alternative launcher when I switched.

There's no direct replacement. The features I use are in Pear launcher so I use that. You have to look through launcher comparisons to find the features you need.

Also, I'm surprised purple are still using Nova. I thought most people abandoned it after it got sold.

Are there 2 people making out on the next bed?

I've never watched Dexter. What would you recommend I watch if I want to start? Just resurrection? Early seasons first (till before it became garbage)? When did it become garbage?

"Worryingly"? Who is worrying?

  1. You don't need to have the level of success of Tolkien to have value. You can live a completely "ordinary" life and as long as you find meaning and enrich the life experience of those around you then your existence is extremely valuable.

  2. You can be awesome at any age. It's never too late to find something new you might excel at.

How dare you

 

Last year I identified a workplace poop toilet for myself. It's in the next building over. It's a single toilet. A men's toilet. It's outside a large office in which only women work. So this toilet is always unused. Always clean. Always private. If I (rarely ever) need to poop at work, this is where I go.

Today I was on my way and a work acquaintance intercepted me. Every turn I took, he seemed to be going the same way and was telling me about his mother's fractured hip along the way. I had to walk twice as far beyond where I intended and finally shook him with a bogus excuse for needing to go to some unrelated department; and then had to check around corners while I double back.

I've made it though. Just wanted to update you all about this while I'm on the throne.
