    It was already dead for a lot of users when they sold it to an analytics company in 2022.

      I’ve been using it for ages and didn’t even know about all of this. What a shitshow, jesus christ.

      I’m getting a new phone pretty soon anyway so after I stick Graphene on there I’ll find something new instead for sure.

      Yep - and I recall arguing at the time with one of the Nova people sent to Reddit to try and sell us on the idea that everything was just fine, and nothing would change, and hey, look over there, a huge distracting thing…

      It was bullshit then, and so it’s proved. What a waste of a truly exceptional launcher.
