He didn't want Signal on FDroid because surprise surprise he just wanted to roll their own crypto coin with insiders knowledge. You can't do that with open source so easily. There's a reason they didn't publish code for years. That people still support those crooks, who have lost all credibility, for a privacy app, baffles me.
Thank god we have Matrix now.
