minus-squareCosmicTurtle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25arrow-down2·2 years agoLooks like this happened a year ago and analytics can be opted out. If you are still using Nova, make sure you go to Settings> Advanced > Disable “Error & usage reporting” Not sure if that fixes anything… I’ll keep watching this post…I’m curious about recommendations. The default pixel launcher is…just garbage
minus-squareTheInsane42@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2 years agoThanks for the warning, checked settings on all devices and corrected on some. Time to look for a replacement I guess. The only thing I use is the icon size/grid settings.

This isn’t how good software being bought up usually plays out!
