There are big wishes for Signal to adopt the perfectly working Flatpak.

This will make Signal show up in the verified subsection of Flathub, it will improve trust, allow a central place for bug reports and support and ease maintenance.

Flatpak works on pretty much all Distros, including the ones covered by their current “Linux = Ubuntu” .deb repo.

To make a good decision, we need to have some statistics about who uses which package.

    Flatpaks work just as well. It is an electron app, that causes all the bloat. Signal is modern and everything apart drag&drop and maybe a tray icon (havent tried that) works.
