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?

AppImages, which have no automated update facility, are terrible idea for software that is based on the security of the messaging syatem.
AppImage for The Powder Toy (a great game) - no problem.
For Signal? Bad idea.
I’m looking at you, SimpleX.
rpm? Yeah, you’ve got a very valid point.

And if you want an example of one that self updates, ferdium.
