the Niagara launcher is still the only app I’ve bought on Play Store, and I’ve been very happy with it for maybe 5-6 years now

they’re really really good

oh yep thank you, got mixed up there

all of the fancy features that other terminals provide, I get with Tmux, so any emulator for me. I like transparent themes and that’s easy to set up in Alacritty, so that’s what I usually get
