I’m interpreting it in the way that noja is writing it from the perspective of distributions. As in, just link us a repo, and we (Fedora) can include it. That interpretation might be wrong, and I might have misinterpreted it because I’ve been working with distro maintainers on getting some of my software into distributions recently.
But with that interpretation (and the context around that, where users asked about including it in distros), my arguments are certainly relevant.

His points are basically irrelevant if compared to the risks that the centralization causes.
Users of distributions have to trust their distro anyway, for many other packages (including the kernel build) already, trusting them for Signal, too, actually reduces the number of parties you have to trust.
