I’m not looking for a full PDF editor. Only to do tasks like merging and splitting PDFs, removing pages, or creating a PDF from a bunch of images.
https://www.ilovepdf.com is very handy, but I don’t like the idea of uploading my documents to them, especially if they have sensitive data.

Pdfsam for merging/splitting/etc. For creating PDF from bunch of images you may try Libreoffice Draw, for instance.

I love PDFArranger. It has basic functions such as rotate, add or delete pages and it comes very handy for large documents. Also It is available on Linux, Mac and Windows: https://github.com/pdfarranger/pdfarranger

LibreOffice Draw is good

I use pdftk. Its command line only, but does most things well

I use command line tools for this, for most those things pdftk should be enough and it works great -if the command line is too daunting for you, there’s PDF chain a graphical front-end for pdftk.
For creating PDFs from images i often use imagemagick.

Master PDF Editor. The current version is paid, but version 4 is free. It’s a good swiss knife like PDF tool.
