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/.
I keep downloading this hoping I can switch from Microsoft Launcher to an open source solution, and every single time I get stuck because I can't find out how to add apps on the home screen. I've looked through all the docs and they all say stuff like "scroll to the bottom of the widget list and add favorites", and yet... there is no widget list. Long press doesn't do anything. Hamburger button only gives me launcher settings (where there is no widget list). Searching for "widget" shows no results, so even if I embrace the search concept it doesn't do what I expect. The clock is pretty, though.

KISS is the be-all-end-all launcher for me.
I guess that makes me a KISS ass.
Yes, the one you posted are FOSS and thus superior by default than OP.

Wow, thank you for this. I'd not heard of Kvæsitso until now. I'm enjoying it!
kiss is pure shit when you first install it. but if you take the time to set it up, it's like vim/emacs. things start to make sense
I think it worked fine for me with basically no setup, so I'm curious: what kind of setup did it require for you?
not hiding status bar (it's the freaking home screen!)
showing keyboard right away. sortin etc. different icons for contacts.
still missing fuzzy match
