I guess you run a bit of everything, but I couldn’t tell you what every distro is doing with their package manager. All I know is I installed it the same way as most other things on linux using the distro repos and let those guys sort out what versions should be used. I just wanted to point out that the original commenter wasn’t necessarily wrong. That I could in fact follow their instructions and it was there for me as indicated by the screenshot with no further action from me.

It is there for me on Arch linux. Distro package.

Edit: Based on your comment about going to the website to get the software. Maybe you are a windows user?

I think we need uncompromising people in this world. Doesn’t mean we have to listen or follow everything they say though. Those are my thoughts on GNU.

Good for them. Hope more follow suit.

My only problem with Signal is the inability to manually sync conversations. Even if I have backups from my phone. They can’t be used on the desktop. I have seen some third party tools, but even those state that they might not work.

Press X to doubt.

Wow, they actually asked this time?

I’m just waiting for linux phones to be as viable as linux on the desktop, which I already use. I’ll take whatever drawbacks come with that decision.
