Branch Metrics sucks. They fired almost of all people working for Nova.

    You’re posting this brief message a lot, so I googled it, and, no releases since October 2022? Only on f droid and is there really no way to pay other than PayPal donations? Am I looking at the right neo launcher?

    Development isn’t dead, but the lack of releases and fees (one time purchase, please) don’t give me confidence.

      I moved to lawnchair 2 beta (or whatever it is.) I liked neo but the promised release just never came. I kept having it crash and it always took a few seconds to restart.

      Lawnchair has been reliable though even for a beta.

      Dev seems close to next release, I put in a bug on searching with SearXNG and it was fixed the next day.

      One time purchase?

      It’s a open source project, you can install it for free, but you could still donate.

      As far as I can tell they are working on a new release.

      Don’t use it now, but you can follow their GitHub/ F-Droid to see when they get a new release.
