Description
Please implement Reproducible Builds to allow using the developer signature on the default F-Droid server.
> F-Droid supports reproducible builds of apps, so that anyone can run the build process again and reproduce the same APK as the original release. This means that F-Droid can verify that an app is 100% free software while still using the original developer’s APK signatures.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reading the linked F-Droid Reproducible Builds documentation and inspecting the project's Android build and F-Droid configuration. Done means the app can use reproducible builds so the default F-Droid server can retain the developer's APK signature.
