What is signal anyway? I've never paid attention to phone apps much. Why isn't it on F-droid if it's FOSS? Is it like irc but with encryption? I guess I should look into it.

It's more like WhatsApp or messenger (pick your poison on which one I am referring). Fairly lightweight. No useless features. And I think there's an F-Droid version, running as Molly.
