We usually don't trust new services either but here are a few points that might address your concerns:
The privacy-kit library was just announced yesterday. There are no external contributors yet but it's open source and anyone is welcome to help make it better.
“for the masses” means that it doesn't require high technical skills and anyone can include it to their website. This is one of our goals: democratizing online privacy.
Our website is simple on purpose. We aim to keep it this way. We build everything from scratch to reduce external dependencies to the strict minimum.
We're also contributors to Lemmy and other select FOSS projects: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4881
