  1. I get some times second hand phone to play with them, and I do many re-installations. So I did a Python script to handle the install of apps coming from F-droid more easily repos.susurrando.com/adelgado/
    It does a backup of the APKs or a list of APK names, and it restore the APKs or, better (because it will be more up-to-date), from the list of names install the latest build available from F-Droid app store

  2. @mu This is one kind of reuse center that I found on the web. It's something a local library could sponsor. Also, there are places that do that with building materials (#HabitatForHumanity #ReStores).

    "What Is a #CreativeReuseCenter?

    "A creative reuse center is a #CraftThriftStore and so much more. It’s a business or nonprofit organization that collects #usable materials, leftovers, or surplus creative supplies and redistributes them to the community for reuse. These organizations accept donations from individuals as well as manufacturers, industry partners, and businesses. Donations can be in the form of leftover craft supplies such as your craft stash. They may also include cabinet or flooring samples from a home renovation company or the end of a roll of vinyl from a sign manufacturer.

    "Each center makes decisions differently and has different donors and #donations rules, but the ethos is consistent: They help people see the potential in useable waste as art. The creative possibilities of cast-off materials are limited only by the imagination of the artist. Creative reuse is all about #upcycling and #repurposing: elevating and #reusing an unwanted material or item into something entirely new with purposeful value."
