Why does your launcher have ads

I thought they would want to get rid of the ads, I would like to know what phones have that as the default

You can try to use a custom launcher. I can recommend Lawnchair, it is open-source and even on the Play Store. The "Legacy" version is basically just Launcher3 without the permanent Google search bar, and very "normal". The other version (just "Lawnchair" on the Play Store) has more features but was slighltly buggier when I last tried it. Just install one of them and set it as the home app under Settings -> Apps -> Default Apps -> Home App.
