Good call!

I’d also like to share another option for folks: Flauncher. I’ve been using it for a few years - it’s very clean and lightweight.

You can set it as the default using ADB commands, or install it directly from the Play Store.

gitlab.com/flauncher/flauncher

Paired with a button remapper and set as default, I honestly haven’t seen the stock Android interface in years. (Like you, I’ve also used ADB to disable telemetry)

PS: For the uninitiated, these are also worth installing:

smarttubeapp.github.io

Gives you ad-free YouTube and then some.

f-droid.org/packages/org.courville.nova/

Lets you connect a hard drive to your router and create your own local media streaming frontend ala Netflix (or plug your hard drive / USB directly into your TV; it doesn’t care).

While it lacks some of the polish, it’s simpler than Jellyfin or Plex.
