Niagara Launcher
This a good place to plug my favorite launcher? Search-based launchers in general are something I just cannot live without nowadays, there's way less friction there with openint apps and such.
Kvæsitso is the one I use currently: https://kvaesitso.mm20.de/. The design is really good, and the widget support is nice. Search is not as perfect ass the classic KISS, though: http://kisslauncher.com/.

Looking for Nova launcher alternatives please
KISS launcher - A Simplistic launcher focused on minimalism. You get one window, one line of favorites, one widget and a searchbar. The ability to tag apps is great and the search focused useage I fine quite pleasing. I do wish you could have more widgets but combining it with KWGT and Popup widget 3 has been my go-to solution.
