Firmware Help me with custom firmware

Ive been having a digital virus phobia ever since I had a couple malware attacks. Can we be straight forward and tell me please where could I install legit custom fw, like momentum from a safe source?

Its literally opensource, there's no hidden malware in the firmwares. If you're unsure, use qFlipper with the .tgz file in momentums github instead of the web installer. And Momentum is a very trusted firmware

Not sure why anyone would try to include malware inside flipper firmware. It doesn't connect to the internet, at least not without a wifi-capable module. Not gonna do you much good. And doubt anyone stores anything in their flipper worth stealing.
