Vapid argument: You can always check it yourself. That is the benefit of open source: you can inspect the source code and see if it’s malicious or not. You would usually know if an open source project is malevolent or not; if you still have some dubiety, you can always deploy it yourselves.

You are correct. This is indeed a thing (though typically when the authority figure is right in front of one’s face), but I have noticed it a lot less in zoomers. On a similar note, the Indian Police Act and, rather, law enforcement as a whole needs to be reformed and worked heavily upon so the laws sincerely get executed and implemented (maybe then the people won’t be as intimidated).

Yes please. Sumn like reveddit or unddit for lemmy would be pleasant.
