How do I know tp trust this?
technically you can't trust me, but the code is right there and should be easy enough to understand so that you can verify im not doing anything shady. otherwise "trust me bro"
Ok. I'll check it out later
I find it good that you doubt and ask.
My answer (like OP's one) is: You do not need to trust (blindly like for closed-source or platforms). The script is FOSS, you can check every step it does, before you use it. One of the biggest benefits of FOSS :)
Always a good question to ask, but this script is very simple and I can confidently tell you that as it is right now, it's completely safe
