Description of the changes in your PR
For your consideration, I'm submitting a small edit to the README to add the hash of the signing key currently posted on the NewPipe website and bring it to the user's attention in installation method #2.
For android users looking to download the APK and install directly from Github, or using a different method like Obtainium, the responsibility of verifying the signing key of the downloaded APK is placed on the user. This is easily done with AppVerifier. A signing certificate posted on both the website and in the README would improve user confidence in the download.
Thank you for your consideration.
