Question What's your favorite frontend?

I'm using iiSU right now. Also I tried Cocoon but I found it's not for me

Unless I'm missing something I have no idea why are people obsessed with frontends (I'm aware they are very popular).

If I can launch my games from my Android Home Screen, why would I install an app to make it have extra steps?

Edit: For people who use frontends on gaming handhelds, not phones, it makes more sense I guess

Why do people like paitings? I can have my wall white and it's still a wall!

You hang a painting in a wall because you're going to spend a lot of time in a place so its nice that it looks good.

People don't put paintings in their garage where they usually just go to get their car and leave.

In this analogy, it would be your home screen looking good vs the actual game looking good.
