Would you provide an alternative way for installing Signal in case you will be banned from distributing the app in the EU?

I don't think there is any reason to not let users download the .apk directly from web. For example Steam does that.

Yes! Since I don't remember how many years…nearly since the first versions of Signal.

Abolish the walled gardens. Signal already has the APK on their website. And there is Molly et all.

But lets not forget, while we - tech savvy people - are perfectly fine circumventing this horseshit, is is everyone else that gets hurt by Chatcontrol. Call your MPs and force them into action.
