I see Lidl started to setup such devices in their shops in Wrocław.

On the display, it is written “We do not accept: glass bottles, bottles after oil”.

I found this topic How to add plastic bottle recycling container? describing similar device, and Tag:vending=bottle_return - OpenStreetMap Wiki is also similar.

Currently, I’m planning to use these tags:

amenity=vending_machine;recycling
check_date=2025-02-15
indoor=yes
language:en=yes
language:pl=main
language:uk=yes
level=0
operator=Lidl
payment:token=yes
recycling:glass_bottles=no
recycling:plastic_bottles=yes
recycling_type=container
vending=bottle_return

Any idea about better tags?

In my opinion, the method for tagging this type of device is described in the wiki page you linked here.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:vending%3Dbottle_return

It is better to tag this only as:
amenity=vending_machine without ;recycling addition.
