I'm stupid can someone explain which distros are least backdoored? Maybe using a phylogenetic linux chart to simplify it

You don't need a backdoor in the source code you chuck it in the installer or have it download via the package manager, hell chuck it in snap since its got proprietary code. Not saying that's the case but there are many routes for installing a backdoor that aren't so easy to detect

Compile it yourself :)
