  Some discussion of this over at XDA as you might expect:

  Time to find a new launcher, I guess.

  I've been using Nova since 2014 or so, I don't think I'll switch just because they sold the company and got hired in it.

  It hasn’t been good for a while even before the acquisition. I pinned it at version 6 because 7 was a massive downgrade in terms of features, stability, and performance.
