Thanks for this.

I'm still refining my mental model of "federation" - it's so different from my usual centralized reference frame that even if I understand the vulgarization/explanation when I read them, the images and reflexes my mind has about social media are changing slowly.

Privacy kind of matters to me, so I'm grateful for content that helps me understanding better how it works and doesn't work in a federated setting.

I also think that, as pointed in comments, educating ourselves (the users) and reminding ourselves that privacy is also our job and responsibility is something important.

Anyway, not brining anything new to the discussion, this is mostly an appreciation comment.

I use Olaucher and it works great for me. You just long-press any app in the drawer and you get the “Hide” option.

It’s of course FOSS, I use the F-Droid version.

It’s entirely text though which I like, but maybe that doesn’t fit your needs - no icons and no widgets.
