Description

In accordance with comments on issue #2301 @lrq3000 and me would suggest to add a collection of covid-19 apps. Covid-19 apps are often not privacy friendly but required to join venues. On F-droid there are already some alternative apps which could replace the the more evil once. This will help people not to get excluded from society and being able to protect their privacy.

It might also be nice to add apps that could store QR codes like Catima.

Yes I support this suggestion. I can make a PR (it will be the first time I design a new section but it will be a good training) if the team sees value in this proposition.

I would also suggest that this section adds mentions of how to uninstall automatically installed covid apps such as what Google did with Android phones in Massachusetts.
