Discreet Launcher user here. I wanted something that would remove everything from the main screen and Discreet Launcher was it. I looks nice with Arcticons too.

Pie launcher from f-droid, before I used KISS, but it's too slow for me. Pie is more minimalistic, APK size is literally 150KiB and minimum android version is 2.3

I used Nova for years, but it felt increasingly outdated so I switched to Action Launcher. Then it too started to feel outdated after a few years so I switched to Smart Launcher, which I've been loving. I miss AL's side drawer but SL has a lot to offer if you want something slick and simple, with custom widgets and layouts. I recommend you check it out!
I am currently using LineageOS and I just prefer the design and feel of the "Olauncher clutter free". It just werks and does not offer any distractions.
SmartLauncher, here! I love the way it categorizes my apps for me. I like to have a few frequently used apps on my homepage with everything else tucked neatly away in my app drawer... Unfortunately most other launchers I've used alphabetize your apps all together, which I hate. If I feel like playing a game but I'm not sure which one I swipe to my Games page and just peruse them, for example.

I've been using Apex launcher for years
Before this phone (Pixel 6) I used either Nova or Action for a long long time.
lawnchair, stopped using it after buying a Samsung tho, i really like the oneui home.
love the ability to rearrange and organize the app list as well as the homescreen.
lacks customization options tho...
I've been using the Arc Launcher for years now, purely for the reason that it looks rad as FUK. Probably better functioning launchers out there, but Arc Launcher looks cool lol
Lawnchair launcher, its simpler than pocp launcher, and I can change icon pack of individual app.
