Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I've personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It's a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

For the gallery I'm using Aves, and for the file manager Amaze.
For the dialer, contacts and clock I just use the stock apps from LinageOS.
Thanks will check Aves out: https://f-droid.org/packages/deckers.thibault.aves.libre/
I've been using Material Files and am happy with it.
Aves does not have any editing features
I think that functionality should be separate from a gallery app. Check out Image Toolbox for mobile photo editing.

do you have anything for editing videos?

Simple, but closest we have for now.
Yeah, that's true. But it's not a problem for me because I rarely edit photos on mobile. When I have to, I just use the stock app.
Amaze can't handle WebDAV :(
For WebDAV, you can use DAVx⁵ or Round Sync
DAVx⁵ works great and super reliable
