Replacement for Neo Launcher?

I used to use Neo Launcher as an open source replacement for Nova Launcher. Unfortunately it’s haunted by a terrible bug that regularly resets my home screen. Now I’m looking for a replacement. All I need is the ability to change the home screens grid size, the app icons (ideally also the names) and hide apps from the drawer. Any suggestions? EDIT: It should also be open source, obviously. EDIT #2: I’ve settled with Lawnchair and it looks quite promising so far!

I’m open to suggestions too. I stuck with Nova Launcher and disabled its network permission. I can’t seem to find anything open source that runs as quickly and enables anywhere close to the customization. I don’t see a privacy issue related to Nova selling out (now that it can’t touch the Internet).
