I use Pixel Launcher because it is the fastest Launcher available for Android and has the better stock animations plus the select text feature from the app switcher (so handy when you can't select text quickly from an app, which happens very often).

I do miss the lack of customization though, I used to use "Pixel Launchers Mod" for this regard, but it is stuck at A13 sadly.
