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

      For people who did not click the link:

      The original Nova team, for many years, was just me. Eventually I added Cliff to handle customer support, and when Branch acquired Nova, Cliff continued with this role. I also had contracted Rob for some dev work prior to the Branch acquisition and some time after the acquisition closed we were able to bring him onboard as a contractor at Branch.

      However, I’ve always been the lead and primary contributor to Nova Launcher and that hasn’t changed. I will continue to control the direction and development of Nova Launcher.

        This reminds me of my neighbor informing me, that he is leaving WhatsApp, because he heard somewhere that WhatsApp is going to give all of his chats to advertisers. He switched to Signal for about a month, found out that nobody is there and it’s happily back on WhatsApp. All of this because WhatsApp allowed brands to store chats somewhere, the chats between the user and that specific brand. People often blow things out of proportion.

      I personally really learned a lot from so many of my coworkers and treasure my time with them.

      Absolutely typical bullshit. NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE. How about the people who were FIRED… “Parted ways” what a slimy shitty fucking way to put it.

      So tired of “leaders” assuming anyone fucking cares about their experience. I care about the people who made things, this flowery language simply tries to make people think better of them, and take away from the fact that people that did the work got the boot.
