A fair warning: FIDESZ fucked with Magyar and his wife, so he fucked FIDESZ big time.

I was a fan of X-plore too. :D
Good. Good. Fossify has its own apps for clock, sms, phone and gallery. There's Ghost Commander for file management (its like Total Commander for Android) or Material Files on F-Droid. Alsi, I use Graphene's camera app. How do you do syncing or cloud storage?
Once R brcomes unusable without this, I'm leaving it completely. I just hope many will do the same.
Kvaesitso and Lawnchair are launchers that get recommended a lot. I prefer LaunchTime. Unexpected Keyboard is my favorite, minimalist but great. All of these are on F-Droid,
Arkona, because I don't speak Russian. Palmetta, because it's so beautiful.
Primary: Fennec (F-Droid), IceRaven, IronFox. Vivaldi as a secondary.
Mainly my shitty memory. I have photos of events like family meetings, birthdays, holidays on my phones SD card. I manually save things like contacts, not-so-important notes to my SD card. Copy my stuff to my PC every now and then (2 mo. usually). My important notes are on paper written with a several-thousand-year-old script.
1, Find out whether she needs any specific piece of software that is hard to replace. 2, Regarding distro, you should install her what you use, so it is easier for you to help. Ubuntu is well hated for a reason though (Canonical doing big tech things). I'd recommend either Linux Mint or Debian (if you are not a beginner in Linux and comfortable in the termunal) for both of you, but I'd wait until she passes her exams and may consider setting up a dual-boot on a spare SSD first, so she is able to try Linux and go back to Windows when needed. 3, Desktop environment: GNOME is considered best for ones coming from Apple and KDE from Windows. Both are resource hungry in my opinion, so I use MATE, which looks like GNOME 2 out of the box and uses a bit more resources than Xfce, well configurable though. Note that Ubuntu MATE is its flagship edition, many options are there out of the box (like MATE tweak).
Calyx seems to be the best option for you. https://calyxos.org/ Next time you buy a phone (and live in the EU), you may consider Volla. It's degoogled Android by default and dual-bootable with an SD card, so yo can try other OSes while keeping your daily driver.
Andromeda Linux around 2009. It had cool astronomy based theme and animation.

I'm always missing Conversations/Dino (XMPP) from chat apps. It does (almost) everything Signal/Matrix does but without a phone number and it can run on a potato.
