File manager for Android with Dual Applications (lemmy.ml)

My Android Phone allows you to run two separate copies of installed applications and a second space where you can run a different profile for apps (Think a Personal or work persona). The stock file manager clearly captures a range of personal and usage data and information for ad targeting. I'm therefore looking for an alternative open source File manager that I could use that allows me to access files in both profiles as the stock one does. Any ideas?

i started using amaze relatively recently because i had similar issues with other file apps. I didn't have to tinker with amaze as installing it solved my problem.

sorry, i have no tips 🤷
