Anyone tried Signal Desktop

You can not prove your compiled binary from his source is the same one on github.  What good is a self signed deb if the author can't be trusted?  Long time community contributor undef1  also releases signal-desktop builds and is active in the community. https://gitlab.com/undef1/signal-desktop...-/packages  with out the theater of a self signed deb.    Signal has added Apple M1 ARM support in v5.27.1. https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/releases  The community should push the signal foundation to release an official ARM64 deb.

+1 for undef's repo.

I tried out Signal 5.28 beta this morning (https://gitlab.com/undef1/signal-desktop...-/packages - which includes a collapse-able left menu pane: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/2454) having sync'ed to my primary phone and it's not half bad to use.

Omniteck used to publish the corresponding scripts with the deb file but I've stopped considering it a viable option as soon as only deb files were being published. It's sketchy enough using a third-party to install Signal, let alone one that doesn't allow you to see the build process.
