So I’ve been in the rabbit hole of android privacy for some time, last I joined the GrapheneOS community but let’s just say that they doesn’t have a “healthy” opinion about other projects like f-droid.

So I am looking for generic communities that focus on mobile privacy that doesn’t have drama or toxicity or “extreme opinions”. Any suggestions? I prefer chat based communities like matrix or simplex instead of like reddit or lemmy.

Do you know of an equivalent to https://reproducible-builds.org/citests/ for Android/F-Droid packages? I’d like to see some public verification of these reproducible builds, especially Signal.

Signal isn’t on F-droid. You need to use Molly for that.

Indeed… I was not trying to imply that it was.

the public verification is that the developer signed binary matches the fdroid built binary

Yes, but this is often not an option for non-developers
