I actually think this is great design. I havn't actually used any desktop icons on linux ever. I like this phosh menu where running applications and installed applications are together similar to gnome desktop. There is this space for favourites which should be enough. I really hate the way on android where running apps, home screen and installed apps are all separated. SailfishOS home screen is really my favourite. There you have running apps and app laucher can be accessed by swiping up, notifications by swiping left or right and quick actions by swiping down. The whole consept of having just weird home screen feels quite weird and inconvenient for me after using SailfishOS for years. Still I feel phos needs more swipe gestures for being more usable on phone. Reaching all buttons feels really uncomfortable. Ofcourse everything could be customisable to suit everyone.
