I would suggest appropriate is:
When a sign states it is required
When you are indoors but can't guarantee social distancing, such as the grocery store
Outdoors in a crowd (if you actually wade into a crowd)
Not appropriate is:
When driving alone in a car or cart
When cycling
When golfing
When playing pickle ball (although that sport may have some other issues)
When sitting alone in a chair in your driveway.
Now those times may seem absurd, but I have seen each and every one of those scenarios multiple times

I totally agree, though I would change "not appropriate" in the second half to "not useful." If someone WANTS to wear a mask 24/7, I don't think it's up to anyone else to tell him he shouldn't (unless he shows up in the Ocala Sheriff's office, apparently because special snowflakes will snowflake." He might be doing something silly, but it's causing no one else any harm for him to do it, so let the poor schlub enjoy his mask.
But the items you listed as "appropriate" should not merely be appropriate. It should be urged, encouraged, and appreciated.
