You're going to have hard time in life, if you only install software through the apt package manager

Compile from source.

I only install software that is cryptographically signed. Apt is one. Yum is another. F-Droid too. Some tarballs and AppImages are signed.

I won't use brew or pip or npm or windows store or flat pak or any if these shitty stores that dont do basic security

Did you open the webpage? There's a download page with a .deb. Really isn't that hard.
