I switched from Nova to Smart Launcher and haven't looked back.
I've been using smart launcher for years it's automatic categorization is amazing. Though, wanting change, I recently started using Niagara, and like the minimalist approach too.
I switched to Niagara after Nova added the shitload of trackers, and i love it. At first i thought: what, i should only place 7 elements on my homescreen? But it really works and it didn't even take a day of active use that i knew i had to get the Pro version. Was the first time i ever put down money on a launcher, but i've been using it for years now and hope i will never need to replace it, because there's nothing that comes close.
Edit: damn, i read like a goddamn adbot. No, i am really human and like it lol.

I put more. But the ones I use less are on the bottom. So it's there for quick use, but I don't have it there all the time.
