That's old info. Apps are now signed by the developers on F-Droid since about a year ago:

but now with reproducible builds F-Droid ships APKs that are signed by the upstream developer(s).

EDIT: I should note this doesn't address the other issues in your second link (I have twitter blocked, can't see that link) but it does fix the primary issue of the apps originally not being signed by the developer.
