F-Droid: Android FOSS app store
I like this app for interfacing with fdroid: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.machiav3lli.fdroid/
I also like this CLI for bulk downloading apks for initializing a new device over adb: https://github.com/mvdan/fdroidcl
To get releases faster there is obtanium: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium

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.

No User Accounts, by Design
F-Droid is about user freedom, so there are clients that are more like Linux package managers, for example https://github.com/mvdan/fdroidcl

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.

F-Droid: Android FOSS app store
And I just discovered another one today: Harmonic.
https://github.com/SimonHalvdansson/Harmonic-HN
I'm still searching for "just right". And while I know that posting comments is an experimental feature in Glider, I was pretty miffed today when I lost a somewhat lengthy reply that I had spent the previous thirty minutes drafting.
Nevertheless, I know better than to blame anyone but myself for the loss. I should have been copying my progress to a safer location the entire time, and the source is right there, waiting for my patch. As always, the joys of free software abound.

Better ways to read Hacker News
On mobile I use Harmonic for Hackernews it is the best one I've used. I tried many others but Harmonic is the only one I'm still using. The only reason that made me want to use another App, was that it wasn't open source, but it got open sourced some time ago.
