Signal has done their fair share of shady things like not releasing the source code for a year to implement some cryptocurrency and the closed-source anti-spam program running on their servers, but that can be mitigated anyhow since Signal works without trusting the server. It's far better than other alternatives, anyways.

And what do you with the operating system running beneath?

This is a tricky question that can't be answered on computers either even if you run Linux since the package manager can be compromised etc. In case of phones, best bet would be GrapheneOS with verified boot so there isn't a chance it'd get infected.
