Hi all, much of what I have read recommends Android Studio to create Android apps, but I'm a bit wary since it's developed by Google. Are there any other good alternatives that are ideally open-source?

I am currently running Fedora 43 KDE, and I use VSCodium as my main code editor, mostly Python at the moment. Are there any plugins I could use to enable Kotlin support/specific Android dev stuff in VSCodium?

Another alternative that I know of is Rider which supports Android apps with .NET. But it's not OSS nor supports Kotlin. I'd like to see an alternative as well, but I fear unless Jetbrains creates something else (and most probably they won't) there will be no other options.
