Is there some signing in place to ensure it's not a malicious repo? I don't really trust unofficial F-Droid repos.
Unfortunately not. I'm trusting others who know better but if you want trusted as best as it can be you're stuck with the play store sadly.
If I remember correctly F-Droid supports reproducible builds, but it's a matter of the app developer supporting them. So there is light at the end of the tunnel, we're just not there yet.
