1 year agoThey have been diminishing 3rd party launchers with various updates already. Multitasking gestures broke various things and didn’t work well with third party launchers - I think the animations still don’t work. The toolbar they added for foldables and tablets only works with the built in launcher. The last one sucks because Samsung made one for the Fold prior to that which was launcher agnostic (was better too imo).
That said, things are still pretty great and it’s one thing I hope they never kill off as it allows a crazy amount of customization and personalization. Without it, removed me might as well get an Apple (well maybe not).
This is REALLY cool and helpful. I just tried it with the 3 accounts I have and it worked flawlessly.
Only suggestion would be to have the app check a servers defederated list and disregard any communities that you cannot subscribe too. This would prevent a lot of errors that happen when going through the sync. This is pretty minor as the app does seem to skip the community after the error but I suspect it would be a little faster if it just rejectected the community via internal software. Some users who are not aware of defederated communities may get confused by the errors as well.
Maybe this isn’t very realistic? If it isn’t, never mind. :)
