Edit: It seems you can download the APK on their website: https://protonapps.com/
Thx

You can, but you won’t get updates that way. Some of their apps are available as GitHub releases, which you can add to Obtainium. You can also add the direct apk download links to Obtainium, but update checking isn’t great using that method in my experience.

I realized that F-Droid doesn’t have latest version of the apps though.

You’d be surprised to find out that ProtonMail uses Google’s push service (unless you have GMS disabled) so your emails aren’t hidden from Google as much as you think.
Not mine since i dont have play services. I have never gotten an email notif from them since 2019 other than failed to send which is local

You’re wrong, Proton encrypts notifications before sending them to you through Google or Apple push services. The notification is then decrypted in the Proton client on your phone, and only then displayed to you.

Can’t find the blog post on the Proton website anymore, but here’s an official response from the Proton support team on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1cmcre5/comment/l33oxua/
Sending plain text notifications is impossible for Proton btw, since they don’t hold the encryption keys to your email inbox and can’t read your emails themselves, and thus can’t send you a notification with the email subject and body.

titles and senders are not encrypted, they are capable of sending that

The notifications themselves are still end-to-end encrypted though (from the Proton Mail notification server to the client on your phone), so Google, Apple or any other push notification provider can’t read them.

sure, I believe that. though google still knows precisely if you receive a new mail, and the bigger problem is that without google services notifications won’t work whatsoever

Currently, yes. But they are working on they’re own notification systems (probably something based on WebSocket, similar to what Signal does), hopefully it will also be compatible with UnifiedPush. There’s a feature request for this on the Proton user feedback tracker: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/47423924-support-unifiedpush-for-android-notifications
