This isn't a *great* solution. Nova Launcher is a *little* clunky (why are the Kindle and Tusky icons drawn inside other icons?) (I do like it lets me search the Play store direct from local app search). It does really really bother me the navbar buttons are off-center, just because I don't like the screen being asymmetrical, for the same reason it perpetually bothers me when the screen edges are curved [a reason I won't discuss in front of 16,000 Mastodon followers]. But… maybe… I'll… live.
