Free arrangement of the icons on the screen

Hi everyone,


Could anyone explain why there is no way to freely arrange the icons like on the Mac?


I was able to find some hacks and tricks to accomplish this. But I want to just be able to drag an icon wherever I want similar to the Mac, PC, or Android desktop.


Am I missing something?


Thank you.
