If you want to use cactus client and trust the author do that.
Trust a person doesn't depend on open source or not.
Open source has the advantage that it is human readable code (most likely at least )
And that often there are more ppl involved which makes it easier to detect fraud.
But ultimately you are right, you could mistrust the official binaries.
It's still important to say that ddnet does not know cactus, and also doesn't officially support it in any way, and if ppl advertise it here on ddnet discord, it should be made clear that this is an additional risk they take.
Analyzing a binary for a malicious activity is simply impossible, so there will be false positives and it will also miss true positives (actual viruses)(edited)

chiller's client is open source, you can build it your own, and check the source if you don't trust it

Shouldn't have talked about the opressive "master" branch

well ransomware is a bit intense for a client that should help with awareness even if the decryption keys are handed out. It can cause too much damage.
Very, it takes me about 8-12 hours to just unpack and get my landmarks in place. And that is for teeworlds bots where I already know a lot of the actual code
