I’m surprised nobody mentioned this, but I use mpv for the same. It barely has an interface, but it’s light and extremely configurable, and what I did was turn it into a picture-in-picture player (small, no border, etc, show subtitles if possible…). I use it to watch everything, including Youtube videos (it has builtin yt-dlp integration).
This is going to be a long list.
VLC, for playing videos and other media.
Auxio, for playing music and organizing playlists and such.
ConnectBot, for SSH.
Shizuku, for apps that support it.
RootlessJamesDSP, for audio stuff. Powered by Shizuku.
aShell, for stuff that requires root permission.
Aurora Store, for the few apps I need from the playstore.
KISS Launcher.
Droidify, for everything I need from F-Droid. Also powered by Shizuku.
Feeder, for RSS feeds.
FTPClient, for SFTP connections.
LibreTorrent, for torrenting and such.
Mull, for web browsing.
