Help me open source ClubsAll - need a senior security engineer to review code (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone, We built clubsall, a frontend for federated content. Since the goal is to help build a reddit competitor, open sourcing is the logical next step.

However, without a review, I am afraid website could get hacked quickly.

Does someone with experience in scanning code for security issues or white hat hacking wants to help increase confidence so I can open source it?

Agreed. Open source it and let everyone review it.

But even if you don't have experience, it's easy to gain. Start with OWASP, find some static code analysis tools, and run fuzzers. It's a good start.
