The best way is to back up your data and do a clean install back to the previous OS, Sequoia.

I seriously doubt there are many experienced users that would agree with that.

FWIW, this is a support forum, not a soap box.

This one says it works with hot corners - among other features - and is currently on sale for $5:

Zero interest in third party apps due to security reason.

Can I steal that?

I strongly dislike the "new" small launchpad.

I want a full screen app launcher, I don't always want to type app/game name.. now I think about it, Windows 8 startscreen was actually good.

My Macbook Air just updated and this new launchpad is there. Gotta say not a good change. Anyone who also uses or dabbles in Windows this looks eerily like the latest version of windows start menu.

The new app launcher is a good example for changed upon the user nobody asked for breaking valuable habits and harming productivity. This is not innovation, it is empty change.

I don't like it either! I want the old Launchpad back.

Fair enough.

Launchpad was the most advanced way to single handedly open an app. Periodt. They killed it so they could try to sell more Vision Pros

There are people who use a stylus (aka Spotlight) and those who do not (Launchpad).Unfortunately, the stylus people are in charge now.
