Personally I'm a huge sucker for list launchers. Been using the Olauncher since before I even knew what foss means. Also tried the mLauncher, the Easy Launcher and ultimately settled on the YAM Launcher since that one has a weather widget, lets you switch between a list of apps and a list of your contacts and has some neat customization options. My question is if you use a list launcher which one did you pick and why? I'm not neccessarily looking for an alternative since I'm very happy with YAM but it never hurts to explore options.

Edit: Included image of my current launcher:

I use Niagara Launcher, the paid pro variant, it has lots of icon customization and you can put a widget on the home screen. It expends also a Mediaplayer if playback is detected. You can have a pinned list of applications and can swipe to see all of your non-hidden apps, also as a list.

I'm also a sucker for List Launcher, it's just so much cleaner than grids.

I also use Niagara Launcher. I know it's not FOSS, but non of these have the mix of effortlessness and functions like Niagara.
