Launcher is randomly unset as default

Android 13. Pixel 7. Latest github release. For no apparent reason it asks me to choose the default launcher.

do other launcher apps work better?

Yes, I have tried with Olauncher, for example, and this does not happen to me.

It just happened to me when I created a shortcut of the page on the desktop with the browser

so you can reproduce it reliably like that? Default works just fine, but breaks after creating a shortcut?

In another circumstance it has also happened to me, when adding a widget I would say that too.

@sandoxy described a common crashing-default-unsetting situation in their issue #154 before marking it as duplicate of this one.

So it seems Launcher unsets itself as the default launcher everytime it crashes. I can personaly confirm this. It musn't be from adding a widget, it can also come from browsing the drawers too fast etc…

@Cwpute Do you know about the sale and the fork, right?
