I installed a custom launcher that's close to the stock one on my Pixel 3 specifically to make it possible to remove the Google Search widget. Now I have a Firefox widget that points to DDG.

If any are interested, the launcher is Lawn Chair, and it can be installed via F-droid.

It's true (and it feels a bit dusty), but it's still meeting my needs. I hope it'll get picked up again or perhaps another project will replace it.

Last update was from more than one year ago, last I checked. Has it been updated since?

Still more recent than 4 years ago
