    Anyone know why the Signal app isn’t available on F-Droid? Isn’t it supposed to be open source?

      I think it’s by request. the fdroid team build every single app in their repos which means that they are not always fully up to date, so signal argues that whenever they need to push a security release people on froid would take forever to update.

      I think I’ve had this issue with simplex. I’ve had to wait over 2 weeks for an update. That’s why I’m using obtanium for it instead
