Don't worry, you aren't the first person with infinite time and every skill but still doesn't know what obfuscated code is to post here. Use some of your infinite time and every possible skill to learn about the world view of non developers who have time obligations.
Every single update by every Dev for all eternity is a risk vector in every app. I'm sure you read and fully comprehend every line of code you run including every diff for every update plus rereading old code that may have surprising interactions only when paired with this new commit.
Or you could just say this app is a huge risk with minimal benefit and move on.
