I'm not using Signal until it's on F-Droid.
You don't even need a store, you can install through the apk here https://signal.org/android/apk/
Signal's hostility to F-Droid is the problem.
Care to expand on what you mean by that?
they’re not hostile… they don’t see the reason for them and it’s not as clear cut as you’re making it out in favour of f-droid
Because Google's monopoly on the appstore is just great, right?
they have apks
which still use Google services.
that’s an entirely separate concern to f-droid
