I feel the same. I like having my desktop with easy to reach commonly used apps, and a few widgets, such at a Google calendar widget and my keep notes. And I want all the things in the exact spot I put them, so I can build muscle memory to go where I want. The dock is not so necessary as long as I can have enough icons on the desktop. And then I want an app drawer, where I can divide it into tabs, one for regular apps and one for games.
The closest I could find are either:
Lawnchair launcher, but it’s missing the drawer tabs (it has folders though)
Pear Launcher, it has everything, but unfortunately it doesn’t remove the games from the main apps tab when I add them to a games tab…
Kvaesitso has tags. Each app can have multiple tags, and selected tags can be pinned (somewhat like a tab) to favorites, possibly resulting in something a bit like drawer tabs? You can also use the search bar to search for a tag and list the tagged apps.
I use tags like #stream #media #video #audio #download #p2p #torrent #tools #navigation #maps #transport #social #chat #messenger #sms #appstore #files etc. and often I add multiple relevant tags for better brainless searchability, though only a few general useful tags are pinned to the favorites section (e.g. #stream #files #chat and #tools).
Pear Launcher has them but calls them “App Groups”. But as I said, the missing piece is to hide them from the main tab when they have been added to another tab

Drawer tabs is really what i want
Cant find any modern launcher with tabs
Same here - I heavily rely on drawer tabs, and it’s a very under-implemented feature across all of the competition.
Octopi and Smart Launcher also have tabs.
I wasn’t able to figure out how to do drawer tabs in Octopi. Can you help me figure that out?
