It's okay to publish everything open source because nobody reads it, anyway.

Being depressed is my personality.

I'm not talking about using it, I'm talking about reading the code like a book. Including all of the tests and utilized libraries and config files.

Lots of malicious open source apps exist for that reason.

A lot are just such bad quality that they pose a risk by accident.

There are a couple of Very Large Projects like Bitcoin, that change relatively slowly and have a gazillion developers reading through them and publishing results.

The rest is pull-n-pray or fork-n-patch.

Nobody even reads the NIPs and they're just 90-something short docs in English, that change regularly.

Those types of very large projects have very large risks, and the development reflects that.

Yeah. Learning to get over that. I believe your app does have to work though...
