- 2011, HTC Desire
Running ADW Launcher on probably Android Froyo, and the Tron Legacy theme. Tron Legacy was released only a month prior to this screenshot, and I was a huge fan, so I themed everything I had with Tron themes. It was a tough decision whether to go for the Nexus One or the Desire, in the end, I picked the Desire because it had slightly more RAM and physical navigation buttons. Plus, the optical joystick on it was awesome. Also most likely running a custom ROM, not sure which one but possibly Oxygen.
- 2013, Nexus 4
I guess I was testing out TeamViewer for Android here. Not sure about the launcher, but still stuck on the Tron theme lol. Running Android Jellybean, Paranoid Android, with pie controls in the second screenshot (man I miss the pie controls. And old PA, with the per-app DPI, Halo and other cool stuff).
- 2013, Nexus 4
Still on the Tron theme (don't judge), but this time I've switched to Smart Launcher. This is probably the launcher I liked the most and stuck with the longest, thanks to it's automatic app categorization, which meant I no longer had to create folders and manually organize my apps. I stuck with Smart Launcher until it's inevitable enshittification started. Running CyanogenMod 11 (KitKat).
It's November 2013 and I finally got over Tron lol, and started getting more into minimal home screens.
Running XuiMod (Xposed module), which brought back the Gingerbread-style recents. (on KitKat).
Bonus video showing off my entire setup running Smart Launcher, crDroid and a few of my apps at the time: https://youtu.be/2JMBPtKzx2o
I've got tons more screenshots and videos, but don't want to spam this thread. If anyone's interested though I'll be happy to share. :)

I remember pie control, I was running Resurrection Remix and it had pie control built in.
