    No, but an app like Signal claiming to care about privacy should at least make an effort to be on the largest open source appstore. The fact they don’t, despite very loud complaints from the community, makes me question their commitment to privacy and security.

      Again, I just explained to you that the “largest open source app store” is an insecure mess and isn’t suited for apps like Signal. You don’t need to use Google Play, you can find the APK on GitHub, or the Signal website, together with the certificate fingerprint.

      makes me question their commitment to privacy and security.

      That doesn’t make sense. F-Droid neither secure nor trustworthy. Signal not being on F-Droid is a good security choice. I recommend reading through this thread.
