Please consider letting us add notes to the current launcher,
as someone who has / had multiple accounts, it would be nice to be able to quickly reference which account needs/does what, without logging into the game or account management website.

I support this idea. Also, stop hiding the info i need behind a mouse-over icon. Simply show the info.
This Ops idea would bring back some of the functionality lost when they changed the launcher.

When you have that many accounts that you cannot mentally keep track of them and need notes, do those notes really have to be in the launcher though?
Personally I like a minimal launcher that launches an account I choose. The current launcher already does and shows too much to my taste.

Come on now, that would take personal effort.

How is your desire for a minimal launcher conflicting with other peopleâs desire for notes? If you donât add notes, you would not see any change to your launcher experience.
Besides: Except for the ad (which is really annoying), how is this tiny launcher window showing you too much information?
Example: My âtiny launcher windowâ currently has a button to open Vanguard, which I sometimes accidentally click when I select an account and click on the 4th âcharacterâ instead of one of the other three.
It results in a browser opening a website Iâm not interested in blocking the launcher Iâm trying to use.
Things like that. Just remove the unnecessary buttons please.
Previously I had a button âlaunch account oneâ. Now I first need to click the first account and then on a button to launch. Thatâs a step back in quality of life.
I just want the launcher to let me open an account of my choice with one button press. How hard can it be?

âlook how small the launcher isâ
:Cuts out 80% of the launcher:
That is not cut out. This is the narrowest possible launcher size. 
As you would have noticed if you looked at the top of the window where the hamburger menu is on the left and the windows close,min,max buttons on the right.
Thatâs indeed a nuisance that I also click accidentally every now and then. Fortunately, that only is the case for the account that had Vanguard during the tests. Would be nice if I could remove/hide this button. 
Wouldnât launcher groups help with that?
I either open account one, account two or both.
Launcher groups would require three buttons to choose between those three options, while two (one per account) should suffice.
Previously I could click the âlaunch account 1â button and/or the âlaunch account 2â button.
Now I need to first click account 1 (and not accidentally click the Vanguard character) and then click the launch button. More clicks than necessary.

Why you let CCP â â â â on your head and then you even thank them? Because this is exactly what you are doing here.
They reworked something functional into a buggy state (freeze issue) with less features than before and much more annoying to work withâŚ
And the first thing you do when someone request to get the old functionalities back is âjust use 3rd party toolâ.
I can tell you that this is not a solution. I have 20 accounts and I am using them all. Right now I do actually remember which is which, but it took me quite a time and I had to biomass/remake some of my alpha alts so I can at least orientate by their names or looks. Because I need to be able to pre-open a specific accounts very fast. I certainly donât have time to open some 3rd app tool to know which alt is on which account. I have a minute at most.

If you use 20 accounts, use them all and want to see at a glance in the launcher which account is which, I have an elegant solution:
Give your characters a unique portrait!
I click on the face of the character I want to play, no need to remember account names.
I know which one of my alts is my cyno, which one is the hauler, which one the mining booster, the blops, etc.
Now with 20 accounts I could imagine that you donât have 20 unique characters each with their own unique roles, so you could probably find some matching portrait theme for âmining alt 1-10â to recognise them all at a glance.

Yeah, this is one of the memorisation techiques I use already. Position of the account in the launcher and name/portrait helps me remember which account is which. Even though I donât really have very unique portraits. I have bald accounts, punk account, hooded account etc. 
I have quite good memory so because I work with it pretty much daily I remember it.
Still, account notes was a good feature and I want it back as well!
bumped this into Player Features & Ideas - EVE Online Forums

What i normally did (per computer) is configure my launcher with the name of each char + expiration dates+Status of plex/subs(for referrals)+which account they were linked to
Like this example
This is just from one pc. Each pc has different eve accounts for about 90 characters⌠Yea i used to use that many because I was mass Researching bps. Occasionally playing as a ganker, or running logiâs for people/alliance⌠gotta keep eve spicey!

I went to the trouble of creating my own EVE family tree at one point. A4 sized with images of each account name and the characterswithin them with what each oneâ function was and their rough skills / usage. I printed it off and stuck it to my wall. Worked great.
