Since signal is not on fdroid I've been using Molly. Works fine for me. If having a third party developer modify the signal source code is an unacceptable risk for you then it's unacceptable. So far the Molly developers haven't done anything worrisome
Have you tried Molly FOSS, or are you using the standard one with proprietary dependencies? Is there a meaningful difference in day to day functionality?
Foss, basically new messages might not show up immediately
if that's the case for you, your preferences may need some tweaking.
