As long as the protocol is open and has encryption you don’t need to care much about that. Packets on the internet travel through thousands of different machines around the world. You are either using encryption or the whole world is reading your message anyway. There is nothing in-between. If you even want to hide metadata, you would need to use something like Session.
What alternative does the video promote? Trusting Google and the Playstore? Trusting each dev of every app to deliver apks which match the code? I don’t want to give the video more clicks if it’s scaring away people from F-droid towards worse alternatives.
