F-Droid – alternative to Google Play store
I've been trying to automate my smartphone configuration and backup lately.
I use a lot of apps from F-droid, and was pleased to discover fdroidcl: https://github.com/mvdan/fdroidcl
I now have a script that installs most of my daily drivers from it, given ADB and developer mode active on the phone.

How to install a list of apps using fdroid by adb, or using Termux or an script
I mean, if you have the APKs, this should be pretty simple. Pretty sure you can make a custom repo for FDroid and do it that way, though I have not actually done it before. Have read up on it in the past though and should be not too complicated even with non F-Droid apks. Per glavinstone's answer you could take this a step farther and script the install with fdroidcl.

Glider for Hacker News
I personally use this to browse Hacker News. It's great, but sadly it does seem to be somewhat abandoned. The last update was in 2022, and there are a few annoying bugs[0][1][2].
