I'm looking for something as close to Nova Launcher as possible.

I have been concerned about this but every launcher alternative I have tried is always missing at least one function I use a lot.

I am on graphene and have nova launcher locked down so it has access to absolutely nothing, should I still be worried?

Not at all, in fact so far they've changed nothing even in the new beta. Keep an eye on it, but while they bought the launcher, they're not doing anything with it except fund development a bit and get some of the purchase money it seems.

Nice. Appreciate the clarification, I didn't think it would be an issue with everything revoked in graphene but it's nice to get another opinion xD

I've been meaning to ask a graphene user, is the camera still as full featured and capable as the stock camera or does it lose the post processing that Google does?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

No idea I'm afraid, I'm the kind of person who doesn't use the camera and I wouldn't mind or miss it if phones didn't have them xD

Sorry I can't help, there is a grapheneos community on Lemmy that may be able to answer it for you though.

Nope, no shortage of us on Nova and Graphene.
