Breezy Weather is good for checking weather: https://github.com/breezy-weather/breezy-weather

It was forked from Geometric Weather, after it ceased development.

Breezy is nice. Lately there is an issue with source. Will include it in the list. Thanks!

What's your use case with ntfy? I think it is for getting push notifications without play services.
Are you using custom roms without play services?

photoprism seems to have good reviews as well. have you tired it ? demo

Add Immich (needs a server so probably more suited for self hosted thread, but an amazing app and very good Google Photos alternative).

Yes I did, but wanted automatic sync like GPhotos. Also, it doesn't have multi - user like Immich does. Overall, Immich is much more polished and feature-filled. It has its issues, but after using Photo prism for about an year, switched to Immich and haven't looked back!

For personal expense tracking, Cashew is really nice. Beautiful UI and developer is quite active as well.
