    I found out that you can configure rofi to launch a "Favorite Apps", like here: https://github.com/luiscrjunior/rofi-favorites, credits to luiscrjunior. As you can see, this reads a special gnome favorite setting that shows an array of your favorite apps. Adding stuff to this array is quite a pain: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1193496/add-app-to-favorites-from-command-line , you literally need to run the same command everytime and manually alter the array.
