Just switched to Nova Launcher on my Pixel 7 about a month ago. Every once in a while —like, maybe once a week or so—it'll take about a quarter second to load the home screen when I go to home. About as frequently, there will be a slight visual glitch when I launch an app, where the icon zooms out instead of in; but that doesn't affect how long it takes to launch the app. I've also noticed an increase in my battery life, despite tripling the number of widgets since switching to Nova.

Anecdote isn't the singular of data, though.
