    When F-Droid builds direct from repo, signs and downloads to your phone, is it really that different from pulling the APK directly from the original repo?

      It doesn’t sign it locally, it verifies the file you downloaded is already signed properly as it should be. This ensures the download isn’t broken but also that the app is from who they claim it is.

        But they need that because they are not the source, right? I feel like I’m missing something. Developer makes app on say, GitHub, how is going through F-Droid more trustworthy than the source?

          because obtainium gets many apps directly from F-Droid.org too, not just github

          And for those downloads, it does no verification

          Not on GitHub either, where signatures are often attached together with the APK.

            Oh I follow now. Interesting. Perhaps this will become a PR if I ever have time.
