FP3+, 1.8.1
My Gallery started crashing upon startup (trying to display the timeline). (See Feedback for v1.8 - #142 by alice_m)
It is basically unusable now, except for “Open with” operations from other apps, for individual pictures.
Almost sure I used it with this /e/ version before it started crashing; weird. 
Installed Aves right now; looks nice indeed! However, “replaced preinstalled X app with Y” remains a figure of speech since (AFAIK) we cannot easily hide apps, so each “replacement” makes the home screen and its folders a bit more bloated. 
I’ll consider switching back to Gallery if it gets fixed…
