  • I don’t think it has that big of an impact. But most open source developers forget that it might end up being used by more people than just them .

    Mastodon. Lemmy, do a web search especially for Lemmy on reddit and you are more likely than not to end up on threads about the singer . and don’t get me started on the many unpronounceable names of open source projects.

    You are telling me this has been going on for almost a decade now, and no one ever noticed ?

    So we trust open source apps under the premise that if malicious code gets added to the code, at least one person will notice ? Here it shows that years pass before anyone notices and millions of people’s communications could have been compromised by the world’s most trusted messaging app.

    I don’t know which app to trust after this, if any?
