Kinda like it, and mostly because it’s FOSS, but will keep using “Home Launcher” (app.homelauncher, 28.0.28):

• Allows to tie gestures to certain actions, though it still can’t bind double tap on an empty area of the screen to turn it off. I wish either one had this option
• Won’t distort the icons in any way besides their sizing, as Ion Launcher does
• Lets to set another icon for any app
• Can hide apps from the drawer

I gave up trying new launchers years ago, I would try them and fall back on Nova. No one even comes close to functionality as Nova
