Pixel 2 Launcher: Wallpaper Blur - General Topics

Hi everyone! Before anything else, english is not my first language, sorry for any mistakes.
I have a Motorola G4 Play running LineageOS 14.1 and I downloaded the Pixel 2 Launcher from apkmirror web (Pixel Launcher 8.1.0-4429924) and I can't help noticing how it blurs every wallpaper near the search bar.
Pixel Launcher 7.1.1 vs 8.1.0

(In case you don't notice, pay attention to the reflection of the trees, it's blurred)
It may be a silly thing for you but it's really annoying for me, it ruins half of the wallpaper.
Do you have any idea how to fix/change/modify this? Thanks in advance!
PS: I want to use THIS launcher, I don't want to download Nova or anything else.

Chrome OS/Key Lime Pie Style Screen ;)

Hey guys! I wanted to show you my very simple yet elegant lock screen and homescreen! Let me know what you think! The details are below the pictures. [:

Icons are from the 'Mianogen' icon pack on the play store.
Wallpaper is HERE.
Lock Screen is widget locker and the slider is HERE.
None of these are made by me!

[Q] Official Twitter Daydream

Hey Everyone,
I currently have a Moto X 4.4.2 stock. I was extremely disappointed with losing the daydream functionality when Currents changed to Newstand and have been desperately trying to find a replacement. Dayframe is OK, but I just noticed that I had an official Twitter Daydream. At least, it looks to be official. See screenshot below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have an old kindle hd running CM11 M7 (otter) and was hoping to utilize this daydream here. I can't seem to find any reference to this on the internet. Does anyone have any idea where it's coming from? Both devices have the most recent version of Twitter. I tried installing additional third party apps that may help, Dayframe, Muzei, etc. but nothing has helped.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get this on my tablet?
Thanks!

[APP][1.0+] Dark Dimension Launcher

Hello everyone! This is Tom, I'm an android developer and new to these forums.
Around Easter I decided to make a new Launcher for android because the one I was using was slow and annoying. For this reason I created this launcher and I tried to make it as small as possible and consume as little battery as possible, for this reason it has a very simple appearance.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Using this app is simple: The screen is parted on a selected number of categories (defined by the user) each category has a name and up to 6 apps assigned. Launching one of those apps is a matter of seconds!
This app can run perfectly from android 1.0+, it is tested on android 2.3 and android kitkat although it should work perfectly on lollipop as well, and it's only ~80kb in size (depends on device).
Because I'm new I can't upload link in Play Store, so I attached the apk with this post.
I welcome all feedback for it!
Thanks a lot for your time!

CM 12/12.1 WiFi icon width

Hello everyone,
as you might know in Lollipop the WiFi icon got slimmed just a little bit, which I personally really like. Unfortunately I noticed that on CM this change doesn't seem to be adopted, in version 12, so that only the separators of the different bars were removed from the former KK icon.
For demonstration a few pictures:
Side by side comparison:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Overlaid inverted MM AOSP over CM:
Overlaid inverted KK AOSP over CM:
I know that this is only a fine difference and really nitpicking to complain about it :silly:, but I can't unsee it anymore and I am always distracted by it, which is very annoying .
So my question is if anybody knows anything about this oddness, why it exists in the first place and how to maybe "fix" it. I already thought about using a theme, but obviously I didn't find any, that only changes the WiFi icon.
Thanks in advance

Any advice how to get rid of samsung-service buttons in share panel? (One UI 2.0)

Hello!
Right now I do have a Samsung device (Galaxy J7 Duo - SM-J720F/DS) with One UI 2.0 (Android 10).
If I want to share a picture from the Gallery it opens the share panel:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I happen to notice that on top are some samsung-related share options (in english: Smart View, Link Sharing, Shared album).
I would love to get rid of them, as I never use them and they are waaaaay to present for their uselessness.
Does anyone know an option (or a workaround) how to get rid of them?
I happen to notice that 'shared album' does melt into the ocean of all sharing options by itself (hence the picture above) - but I couldn't figure out so far what triggers that. I just happened after a while of using the phone.
I would love to have the other two options would 'melt away' as well (or disappear for good).
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Greetings from Germany!
Johannes
