Fennec is different in other sites with different icons , https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=fennec , https://github.com/kitsunyan/foxy-droid. I do agree Mozilla is par slow in android browser development.

Why does the search results on fdroid website is so different from the search results on the android app? Also, why does the search results on the android app are not the great?

Redmi Note 8 (Global) very slow after latest update and can't install 3rd party APKs
Also, when I was F-Droid or Foxy Droid to install APKs it doesn't open them up in package installer, I usually install and update APKs via Foxy Droid https://github.com/kitsunyan/foxy-droid

How spotify got into fdroid?
F-Droid is for app delivery in general. Only apps from the official f-droid repository are guaranteed FOSS. Third party repos can provide any app they'd like, even proprietary ones. The (unofficial Firefox)[https://gitlab.com/rfc2822/fdroid-firefox] repo for example provides Spotify even though it is not FOSS. If you just have it for Firefox, a FOSS fork is also available in the official F-Droid repo, but under the name "Fennec".

Custom F-Droid Repository with Apps from Play Store
I recently stumbled upon this project https://gitlab.com/rfc2822/fdroid-firefox. It's very handy. It automatically downloads APKs from Github or release pages and publishes an F-Droid repository on Gitlab Pages.

-
Why wouldn't Signal be listed in f-droid? Is there a more reliable SMS (FOSS) program?
It is on f-droid but you need to add a repository: https://gitlab.com/rfc2822/fdroid-firefox#firefox-f-droid-repo-unofficial . alternatively install the apk from signal: https://signal.org/android/apk/ as it self-updates
