Transitioning from GnuCash (lemmy.crimedad.work)

I have mostly enjoyed using GnuCash for desktop and GnuCash Android for years, but the Android version hasn't been updated in a while and I noticed that it isn't even available in the Google Play store anymore (or F-Droid, for that matter). There's a different GnuCash Android app available, but it's a different developer and it looks kind of bad. I'm concerned that if I get a new mobile device and/or upgrade the version of Android I'm running, I may lose access to the app, which would be a huge bummer. To avoid that, I would like to find a good GnuCash alternative ahead of time. Is anyone aware of a self-hosted solution for double entry accounting that will import GnuCash files and can handle non-currency assets as well as GnuCash for desktop does?

So far, it seems like Fava and Beancounter might do the trick, but I'm not sure.

again not foss so won't dwell at length — but i use fund manager from beiley software. commercial, but works double-entry and handles more investment complexity than a human could ever need. windows app, i run it under wine on linux and crossover on mac. (i don't own a windows box — that's how irreplaceable it was for me.)
