try to stick to reputable projects 1st and be always wary of shady installation tactics
One of the first things I look for are longevity, last updated/activity, and then I look at the issues posted and responses. I like mature apps because I don’t possess the intelligence to audit code.
So that takes care of the ‘last updated/acticity’ portion of the trifecta. How about longevity and issues posted and responses. I really know very little about the project as 'arr apps aren’t my bag.
Well, you’re very kind. I do know some coding, as in basic stuff. I can get around as it were. Most of it was learned from manually typing in pages of code from outlets like Byte magazine (zoom in) only to find out when you went to run the program, that you left out a semicolon on line # 5362 and a errant indent on line # 9241.
Hah, yes that’s also how I remember my childhood. But I never was good at it, though I became a good software project manager instead which works well for me using Claude now. I count that as a win.
