Android file manager
Anyone know of a reasonable file manager? Especially for a larger screen device? Android apps make me feel like my hands are tied behind my back and I am using my tongue on a jigsaw puzzle
Two panes would be a blessing

total commander?
MiXplorer is my go-to. It's not open source, but it's the most feature-rich Android file manager I've been able to find. It also supports very old devices, going all the way back to Android 2.3.

I've been using Ghost Commander for years. Two panes, plus SFTP or SMB access to my other machines.

solid explorer works beautifully. it has two panels too. has a paid version in Google play ($0.99 I think?) that enables smb, ftp, sftp, gdrive mounting options

I should have searched for "explorer" or "commander"... Now I see a few in the app stores.
Notably, F-droid has a whole section "Flashlight", but none for system utilities

Ive personally been using fossify file manager, since it works great on the 3 phones I have, but I don’t know how well it’ll scale to larger displays unfortunately.
