The biggest problem with /e/OS is the launcher (Bliss).

The launcher does not seem to be able to do app shortcuts, particularly to make a shortcut to an incognito browser tab. Widgets are also confined to a separate page. [Please correct me if I'm wrong.] It's really trying to be an iPhone in some constraining ways (stressed by the Settings icon).



Lawnchair [1] is a pretty good alternative.

It needs to be in f-droid, or maybe on ffupdater.


It is on F-Droid IIRC.

Edit: just checked, it’s in the IzzyOnDroid repo: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/app.lawnchair
