Honestly same boat. Tachiyomi was just perfect for so long that switching felt wrong at first. Mihon is the closest thing and I use it too but I also stumbled across a Tachiyomi fork recently that someone shared in a Discord and it still gets updates. Feels exactly like the old Tachiyomi which I personally prefer. tachiyomiapk.pro

Beautiful Open Source Apps for Android (nice & modern UI/UX)
UI = User Interface
UX = User eXperience
Most open source apps offer out-dated or classic material design UI. If the apps works great and the UX is not terrible you might find it okay. But intuitive UI are better, and modern looking ones are pleasant to use, sadly they are not the majority. Here is my list of Beautiful Open Source Apps for your android device !
Apps are listed in alphabetical order !
Also look at : The ultimate F-Droid setup for more open source android apps.
and Beautiful Open Source Apps for iOS for your iOS device
DISCLAIMERS
Nice UI comes to personnal preference. So this list is only based on my taste of what is a good modern looking app.
While open source is great for privacy and security it is not perfect. So keep that in mind before downloading any apps.
I again encourage you to do your own research about them and read their Privacy Policies.
I am not a privacy and security expert. I'm also don't consider myself as a developper so I do not have any technical knowledge and so I didn't look into any source code of any apps in this list !
A clean Android setup with the best apps (mostly open source)
Everytime I setup a phone for a friend or myself I usually remove stock apps using adb or UniversalAndroidDebloaterNextGeneration and replace them with theses apps listed here. I added also a couple of nice to have apps that people might wants on their device.
Almost all of them are free as in free beer and many are open source (around 80%)
I tried to feature more applications and less services but there are several services still in this list, however I find them great and/or accessible (freemium most of the time).
FOSS = Free(as in freedom) and Open Source Software

Tachiyomi live as Mihon!
Honestly same boat. Tachiyomi was just perfect for so long that switching felt wrong at first. Mihon is the closest thing and I use it too but I also stumbled across a Tachiyomi fork recently that someone shared in a Discord and it still gets updates. Feels exactly like the old Tachiyomi which I personally prefer. tachiyomiapk.pro
Tachiyomi was free/libre and available on
F-Droid . Mihon is still free/libre but has some proprietary blobs in it such as Google Analytics and Trackers, and thus cannot be on 
F-Droid . That's why I am using 
Kahon which is a Mihon fork that removes them.
Mihon is a great replacement for Tachiyomi, and has complete feature parity with its predecessor as far as I can tell. Two very specific fingers to the company who sued the Tachiyomi project into discontinuation. Long live FOSS.
An amazing, feature-filled comic/manga reader, just like it's predecessor. There's not much else to say that hasn't been said about it other than except it's extensions are still maintained via Keiyoushi for those looking for online sources to add.
I was heartbroken with tachiyomi shutting down. Mihon is perfect replacement. Seamless transfer of backup even downloaded chapters
This is THE spiritual successor to Tachiyomi.
TachiyomiSY and TachiyomiAZ and TachiyomiJ2K forks have been officially forked off Mihon.
