I personally use the fullscreen dashboard launcher, but I also use krunner for a lot.
It's probably the most minimalistic option, just pops up a tiny text field that you type things into and it will then suggest apps, actions, files, commands etc.
The default keybind is alt+space but I bind it to meta+space.
Yeah. I use Krunner quite a bit myself. I have two monitors, so if I have a program running on one and I need to do something like bring up a browser or something in the other one, I just move the move to the right and start typing. It's great. Maybe I need to get into the habit of using it for my main launcher...
In the meantime I found the Andromeda Launcher, which at least allows me to centre it. It's a little gaudy for my taste, but oh well. It'll do until I apparently teach myself to fork Minimal Menu.
