Absolutely! StreetComplete is incredibly easy to use and doesn't require any knowledge about mapping or the inner workings of OpenStreetMap. At this point, it's a very polished app with a great UI and many useful features.

Trusting tab-completion and pressing enter just a tiny bit too early, resulting in overwriting the work of at least four hours, because the files' names started the same. That whilst trying to initiate a git repository to prevent that kind of mistake....
Xfce. It's lightweight and looks great with a little bit of customisation. For me it's the perfect balance between performance, usability and looks
Droid-ify is just a different client for F-Droid. It should be safe and uses the same repositories
TLDR:
-
NewPipe for YouTube playback
-
OsmAnd+ for great offline maps with lots of customisability
-
Termux for terminal emulation and ssh
-
StreetComplete to easily contribute map data to the OpenStreetMap project, which also powers OsmAnd+ without knowing anything about OSM
-
KeePassDX for convenient and secure password storage including autofill (combined with Syncthing for syncing your databases this is a fully fledged password manager across platforms)
-
AdAway as a reliable adblocker for all applications which doesn't require root, but can use the benefits of rooting your device to increase its usefulness even more
+1 for all the NewPipe mentions, as it's extremely useful especially for background playback
Also OsmAnd+ is incredibly useful if you don't want to give your location data to Google constantly. The maps are equally as good as those of the tech giants and it gets expanded regularly with actually useful features, like most recently, weather data. Its biggest strength however is the customisability in my opinion, because you can style everything according to your needs, starting at the overlay and the style of the map and going on at the specific level of detail and custom navigation modes. Additionally, you can download maps of the entire world for free and they get updated regularly. Only downside: There is no traffic data as of now, probably because it would be difficult to implement without processing user data. It's also on the Play Store, but there the "+" version costs money and because the project in itself is commited to being open source I think it's important to list
Lastly, Termux really is the best terminal emulator for Android out there. It is extremely powerful, even allows sh hooks into system utilities like brightness and biometric login, and has great styling and widget support. You can even install full Linux-OS's in a sandbox via proot!
edit: add even more great apps
Apparently they're working on an iOS version as well:
