The easiest way to get Signal on ARM Linux is going to be the unofficial Flatpak.

Literally 2 hours ago I saw a post saying signal now has an official appimage

Yeah, but unfortunately, they still don't build it for ARM Linux, so Asahi users are stuck with the unofficial flatpak (which works well), or building from source.

Yes. I used the signal-desktop package from nixpkgs, no issues.
