@vkc 2 ways in recent times, depending on arch:

1. Distrobox with Debian container, and then install the official Signal package.
2. Unofficial Flathub flatpak which essentially repackages the deb from Signal.

@vkc Flatåak from Flathub

#flatpak #Flathub

@vkc
By using opensuse repositories, following this procedure: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/accurate-way-to-install-signal-in-fedora/117236/6
There is alternatives, but I prefer a simple package

@vkc
When I used Fedora (and now using Debian) I’ve made use of the Flatpak from Flathub

@vkc been using the #OpenSuse build service on Fedora 42: https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=network:im:signal&package=signal-desktop
Sadly the package is/was broken for Fedora 43 due to missing dependencies and I just gave up and moved on to the official Flatpak.

Fells kind of bad though due to the security issues and it being not official.

@vkc Element with the Signal Matrix bridge.

@vkc Flathub! Add two environment variables to use a native Wayland window and enable secrets keyring integration (available in the manifest README).

@vkc I don't. I don't have any contacts that also use signal.

@vkc I don't know about fedora but I use flatpak on Arch.

@vkc
If you find a way to get .deb files to install through Fedora's package manager let me know.

@vkc Flatpak of the official electron app. Used Flatpak of Flare when I was on Asahi remix.

@vkc i use the flathub version. The security warning it gives you makes me nervous, but I’m currently unsure of what else to do

@vkc Matrix bridge

@vkc I use the Flatpak as well.

@vkc Flare flatpak but i dont know if id use something so experimental if i was a decently large online personality facing security threats/creeps/harassers. When I need the full electron app, I use flathub package.

@vkc a flathub flatpak looks like
