I was intrigued and installed this from F-Droid (search for "Image Toolbox" as two words was the hard part). I edited one image with it as a test.
The app feels sleazy in the way that drives me away from so much of the
stuff in "Play" store.

It may well be "the best FOSS Android image editor" but I'll stick with
less best that feels more wholesome.

Thanks for testing the FOSS Android Image Toolbox out for the team.

I had only heard of it a couple of days ago when I had complained on
another site that there wasn't any good image editor that did these things
1. Easily merge screenshots (vertical, horizontal, resize as needed)
2. Easily draw a box around something (round, rectangular, whatever)
3. Easily draw curved arrows (so that they can be routed around stuff)
4. Easily add text where desired (sizes, fonts, placement, whatever)
5. Easily remove the metadata (e.g., EXIF) prior to uploading to the net

As far as I know, this is the only FOSS Android tool that does all that.
Of course, it does a lot more. Like format conversion, Exif modification, cutting and flipping and rotating, resize by weight or limits, etc.

It can also mess with PDF, in so much as it view PDF and merge images into
PDF, convert images to PDF and vice versa, remove PDF pages, rotate,
rearrange PDF pages, add page numbers to PDF, add electronic signatures to PDFs, remove annotations from PDF, grayscale, flatten, repair, unlock PDFs, extract images, etc.

It also has QR & barcode and cipher and zip and ascii art and jxl and apng
and webp and checksum tools.

If it works, a keeper feature might be the OCR features in PDF-to-Text, although it might just spit out the inherent text in a nonbitmap PDF.

Dunno if that stuff works well or not, but, as far as I know, it's the only FOSS tool on Android that does the main things needed to annotate
screenshots for upload to the Internet.

Note that it has the same issue all powerful image editors have.
The learning curve is steep.

Ask me how I know this...
