It’s open source, which in this case means a lot of people are working on it, and it is used on internet-facing computers, which means it can’t hide behind a residential firewall so has to be secure against every attack imaginable.
So yeah, the fact that is called merely “secure” is indeed lol, it should have been called “ultra mega super max secure”.
This is a seriously ironic take coming from someone whose username is a reference to the biggest breach of Linux security in history and the ease with which the trust needed to pull it off was gained
