It's foolish to think open source isn't possible on Android.
Music: Newpipe (casual), Seeker (hq) to save locally. Vanilla to play local music. Blade if you're paying Spotify or want Deezer's library.

I tested all FOSS music players and concluded they're all imperfect
Blade is unique as it can play songs from your local and Spotify/Deezer libraries. You could even think of it as a lightweight FOSS Spotify/Deezer client. It has limited features and an old UI. Opening the "Folders" menu and choosing Internal Storage crashes the app. It doesn't have gapless playback and can't exclude folders. Luckily, Blade v2 written from scratch seems to be on its way.

FOSS offline music player suggestions?
I've recently downloaded APlayer and I'm pretty happy with it. It comes with an Equalizer and lyrics support and what I really like about it is that it can display the lyrics over other apps. I haven't found any bugs so far.

APlayer ostensibly has excluding folders feature, which doesn't actually work. It doesn't have gapless playback. Animations feel slow, gestures aren't intuitive.
