The 16GB USB stick image is pointless if people cannot install any of the thousand pieces of software after rebooting after the initial install of Bullseye, which will be the case for most people.
I wasted hours looking for a solution online, stumbling upon countless people totally stuck, and finally found ONE solution on ONE page only on the whole web, and only in English :

Here is a little guide you could put in a README :
In a console in root, type :
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Add this symbol # to the beginning of the line beginning with :
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux
You can also add the same symbol # to the beginning of the other lines if this computer is not connected to the internet.
Add the following line, replacing USERNAME with the name of the user :
deb [trusted=yes] file:/media/USERNAME/"Debian testing amd64 1" testing main contrib
Then save the file with a CTRL + S and exit with a CTRL + X.
Authorize apt (the core program needed to install any software) to access the USB stick by typing this in a console in root :
setfacl -m _apt:rx /media/USERNAME
Verify that apt has access to the USB stick now :
getfacl --tabular /media/USERNAME
If the following line appears among the other ones, it means apt can now access the USB stick :
user _apt r-x
Then update apt, still in a console in root :
apt-get update
Now you can use either Apper or Synaptic, which can be found in the System software menu, to install any piece of software that is on the USB stick.
I wrote this in French first :
En root :
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Ajouter le symbole # au début de la ligne commençant par :
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux
Vous pouvez aussi ajouter # au début des autres lignes si votre ordinateur n'est pas connecté à internet.
Ajouter la ligne suivante dans sources.list et commenter toutes les autres avec un # au début de la ligne (remplacer USERNAME par le nom de l'utilisateur) :
deb [trusted=yes] file:/media/USERNAME/"Debian testing amd64 1" testing main contrib
Autoriser apt (programme essentiel pour installer des logiciels) à accéder à la clé USB:
setfacl -m _apt:rx /media/USERNAME
Vérifier que apt a bien l'accès maintenant :
getfacl --tabular /media/USERNAME
La ligne suivante doit apparaître si tout s'est bien passé :
user _apt r-x
Mettre à jour apt:
apt-get update
Utiliser le logiciel Apper ou Synaptic pour installer tous les logiciels qui se trouvent sur la clé USB !
