/e/os is LineageOS + microG with an easy installer available or pre-installed purchase. The interface design is based on how iOS works, for example to move an icon on your phone long press one of the icons and wait till they all go wiggling and then drag the icon to where you want to have it.

I think /e/os is okay for folks who want a deGoogled phone that comes pre-installed.

In case anyone wants to try the /e/os easy installer on an old and supported phone, the /e/os easy install is really much more easy compared to plain LineageOS install.

In case you don’t like the interface, you can also simply install a different launcher and set it as the default start app. There really is a lot to choose from: android.izzysoft.de/applists/…/tools_launcher?lan…

Toot

Are launchers reasonably fast nowadays? I think the last time I put one on my phone was around 2014 and I removed it very quickly because the slight lags and delays at every corner really annoyed me. I’ve never used iOS, but I guess I could get used to it if it means not having excessive lag when using it haha

In my experience, I can’t see any difference in speed between different launchers. But just try it out, install a few and then delete the ones you don’t like.

I use lawnchair as a replacement of the launcher from /e/OS. It is fast and customisable and has a more android type look.

Fossify could be another option, maybe lighter than lawnchair.

The original one is smooth, but I do not like IOS launcher and icons type.

It’s all about taste ^^
