Yeah that one's too much for me too, I used to do this years ago, but not anymore. Especially since I found out Brave supports network blocking for extensions, which is something you generally set up once and then forget about it. I'm just giving people tools and ideas I didn't see mentioned elsewhere in the comments, it's up to everyone to figure out their particular threat scenarios and tradeoffs individually.

This could probably be automated though if someone wanted to tackle it. git pull, agentic code review, auto-build from source, install.
