Funny thing. I regularly look at people's code. I probably peruse the .NET std libs and garbage collector code daily along with gnu libc and musl sources (mostly looking for hidden cryptographic functions). I pop through Damus and other C apps like strfry and such. I learn so much by looking though other projects code. I read TLDR and look through the code of FOSS apps if it's doing something I'm interested in daily.

That's why you're good. 🤷‍♀️ You're not the sort of programmer he's worried about having a look at his code, tho, as you're just curious and learning new techniques or how to implement some NIP. You still go build your own thing, often in a different language, which is too much effort for a copy-cat. I mean, we used to reverse-engineer implementations from compiled code, and you can soon probably have AI do that for you.
