    Thankfully the code is open source so a good answer can be had. Unfortunately not familiar with the code base

    Ofc instances themselves may modify the code to track certain things. However this highlights the importance of using instances you trust.

    I wonder if there is a checksum or something to verify what version of code an instance is using

      True, open source is always better for the sake of transparency. Worth noting, though, that doesn’t mean the server you are browsing on uses the exact build they say they are.
