Signal on Linux (lemmy.today)

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?

Not possible. Not secure.

rpm is less secure than deb?

Depends if its signed and how you get the key

Apt and yum are almost always more secure
