How do I know it’s actually safe to install? Lol
In addition to the code being freely available, as others have pointed out, the developer has attended some number of software conferences at which his knowledge of this subject matter and this project makes itself evident.
It’s open source. You can compile from source.
It’s open source, you can take a look here: https://pagure.io/JShelter/webextension
You’re asking the right questions! @Splashy5928@lemmus.org has the right answer
It’s the right answer if you know how to read code
The only alternative is closed-source, which is just “trust me bro”. At least with open-source you have the option to check it for yourself. Doesn’t have to be a perfect system
I figure if it’s open source someone will have read the code and I can settle for riding that effort
That let me sleep easy for twenty Years. Then xz happended. I am uneasy now.
What’s so funny that had you loling?
They’re just saying it in a jovial, not so serious tone lol. Maybe you should lighten up lol
Prolly just a trust me bro that some smart coder chad did the dilligance
That’s a lot better than closed source, which is just “trust me bro”.
I dont disagree but didnt check the code… I trust the bro🫡
