I use Android because I want to install the apps that I fucking want. The launcher is the place where I spend very little time. Stock Android launcher is generally fine for me.
You literally have an OS you can do anything with in terms of visual UI customization
Is that still the case? Sure you can replace the launcher, but things like the quick settings, notifications, general UI elements are all defined by the OS, and the custom ROM scene isn’t the same beast it was a decade ago.
This is a genuine question BTW, if you know something I can install to say replace the notification/settings pull-down (and I don’t mean “install this random custom ROM that needs root access and hasn’t had a security update since 2018”!) then I’ll download it right away!

Apps are easy. The UI you interact with a thousand times a day isn’t some fuckin nothin burger.
Installing new apps is easy, getting rid of 100 bloat apps is not. Or rather, impossible, except for rootable phones.
You don’t even need root. Developer options -> USB debugging, then run Universal Android Debloater on your PC.
Does that work with the samsung Gallery etc. too? I thought they were installed as system apps.
