How is it possible, that Signal still only provides a .deb package and no .rpm, or even better AppImage or Flatpak? There is an unofficial Flatpak but is it secure?

    Personally I don’t understand the large warnings on flatpaks built by others, by that logic you should get a warning sign each time you download from the Ubuntu community apt repository.

    OSS is built out of love, and to me this warns guilty before proven innocent.

      Well I think you have to distinguish between a messenger and other programms, because a messenger has a lot of sensitive data.
