Kind of, but if the code is indeed open source, it wouldn't take long for someone to point out if there's something shady in seedsigner's code for example, so the amount of trust is still very limited, especially over time. Then again, if you don't verify the source when you download firmware, you are blindly trusting a potential danger. So that part's on you.

That’s very true I think. I just think it’s insane that some people know how to write and read code like that. I don’t know the slightest bit about programming 😂 I wish I would tho

It's as simple or as complex as you wanna make it yourself.

I found python to be a particularly comprehensible language.

I'm nowhere near "good" either but reading for the sake of checking for malicious intent is doable for anyone imo.

I used to suck at many things such as maths, but I was just uninspired until I found bitcoin and learned how to verify the given formulas myself haha.
