For context, this video got me a little spooked about my current OS, I never was super comfortable with their "overnight update" style despite it being more secure. How do they prevent unsafe binaries from a rouge employee being pushed to the device, deviating from / hidden in its open source roots, I know manually self-compiling to validate is complicated and may get diffrent results than the official rom. If I need to switch away, what to? I need update integrity over speed. Also Magisk would be nice.

This comment explains the drama and concerns pretty well. In short, the problematic lead stepped down and there isn't really a reason to discredit the dev team as a whole.
As far as auditing goes, the code is available on GitHub. Only slightly joking, following release updates would be a good way to see what's changing at a high level.

Did you link the wrong comment?

Don't think so, it links to the statement by thehatedone, right?

It should be right, like Dataprolet said. Lemmy's handling of linked comments can be confusing though.
