Oops, silly me. I forgot it would not be using the “Simple” name. I’ve just installed the Gallery application and so far I’m well pleased.

Will the calendar app pick up the current reminders or have they to be typed in again?
I got the fossify photo gallery app. Very nice
The data will have to be migrated, fortunately this should be fairly easy.

yeah, long term todo
In the meantime, there’s RSS for TWIF News | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository 
Yes @ RichZ thanks I have done it now. I now have the fossify calendar and photo apps
The Fossify apps are availably via the repo:

I have noticed that the Gallery app if downloaded from Fdroid repo does not have a Fdroid signature. I thought all apps directly from Fdroid are also signed by Fdroid. Has this been changed lately, or was I wrong.

I read the link, but am still unsure. Are the apps in the Fdroid repo either reproducibles or Fdroid signed exclusively, or is there a third possibility.
I said:
But you ask
?
what 
I always thought all apps in Fdroid are Fdroid signed.
Now I learned they are either
- Fdroid signed
or - (verified) reproducible and otherwise signed.
Is there a third possibility? Or does every app comply to either 1 or 2.
Thanks for your patience, english isn’t my native language
Any apk in F-Droid main repo is signed by F-Droid or reproducible and signed by upstream dev.

Thank you.
There are 3 states actually:
- signed by F-Droid: Conversations | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository " It is built and signed by F-Droid, and guaranteed to correspond to this source tarball."
- signed by the developer as the app is reproducible: Ltt.rs | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository BUUUUT the website has a bug and does not say that, pending future work
- signed by both the developer (reproducible) and by F-Droid: NewPipe | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository you see two packages with the same version, one says: " It is built and signed by F-Droid, and guaranteed to correspond to this source tarball." and one says " It is built and signed by the original developer, and guaranteed to correspond to this source tarball."
Both website and Client are on a TODO to be improved and makes these states clearer.
