Sad to read, but not at all surprising. I remember how much damage control Kevin was doing back when the sale to Branch happened.
I hope he has learned something about trusting the word and contracts from entities like Branch from the whole thing.

Action can do this? I’ll have to check it out, because that’s the feature from Nova I can’t live without. My whole home screen has been built around it for years.
Action can do this. I believe it was implemented on Action before Nova anyway but it’s years ago at this point… But yeah that’s the main feature I miss with all the other launchers.
I can’t quite remember how the in app purchase element of it works, I appear to have paid to be a supporter in 2022, I think around then maybe is when they changed payment models and annoyed people idk.
It’s too integral a part of my usage for me to worry about, as much as I love FOSS stuff. I’m totally happy with the small amount I’ve contributed. The app is still releasing updates.
