While I generally agree, the project needs to be big enough that somebody looks through the code.
I would argue Microsoft word is safer than some l small abandoned open source software from some Russian developer
That’s true, but I’m not a programmer and on a GitHub project with 3 stars I can’t count on someone else doing it. (Of course this argument doesnt apply to big projects like libre office) With Microsoft I can at least trust that they will be in trouble or at least get bad press when doing something malicious.
