Launchpad is not actually gone: it's now a sub-unit of Spotlight.

I still have an M1 Macbook Pro with touch strip, and my Launchpad touch strip button still works, bringing up Spotlight but with a predicate that makes it search only ./Applications and ~/Applications.

That's not Launchpad; it's inferior in many ways.

Could you elaborate on the ways in which it is inferior? I haven't found any yet, and I'd like to get the most out of my Mac.

I upgraded a couple days ago, and so far so good. It seems to work fine for my purposes at least. My assigned keyboard shortcut continues to work, even.
