Just use the F-Droid version if there is any doubt.
Probably Russians who used Signal before.
The F-droid version is also not reproducible. The binary you install has a different hash than the one you build from the GitHub.
It's reproducible if you compare it with F-droid's tarball, which has all the source code in it.
F-Droid builds from source, so any suspicion whether the Google Play version has been tampered is completely irrelevant for the F-Droid version.
