@thelinuxcast
Lol. I just installed it like 4 hours ago just to see what it was all about. Haven't even tried it yet.

@thelinuxcast That's a shame, I like Nova launcher. That said, development never seemed to be particularly speedy so maybe it won't be noticeable.

@frassmith Who knows?

Most people seem to have moved to Lawn Chair anyway

@thelinuxcast Yeah, I need to give that a try.

@thelinuxcast @frassmith Especially considering that Lawnchair is open-source and thus mostly safe from this kind of ending.
@csolisr @thelinuxcast @frassmith Apparently they vendored some jars instead of using package management, so they're barred from being added to f-droid and nobody has been addressing the issue since 2021. 😐

@thatrandomguy They were acquired a couple of years ago. So this was probably inevitable.

@thelinuxcast It kinda looks like it was only Rob, an extra dev, and also Cliff doing PR and community management. Kevin is still there, kinda like before, quite a shame anyway tbh. I just wish they had never partnered with Branch
