. . . that allows the user to hide apps in the drawer?
I use Olaucher and it works great for me. You just long-press any app in the drawer and you get the “Hide” option.
It’s of course FOSS, I use the F-Droid version.
It’s entirely text though which I like, but maybe that doesn’t fit your needs - no icons and no widgets.
I love Olauncher, I tried it out on a whim and never left
What’s a launcher?
Controls your home screen and app drawer. Nova was the popular one until they sold out.
What did Nova do to sell out? This is the first I’ve heard that

It’s very different from most launchers, but once you get used to it really nice.
I was really loving it but it was bogging down my old-ass pixel 2. Do you know of any other similar launchers? I need a new phone.
