Why is this? Would you also say this for other long running open source projects which have never breach the trust of their users?

The repo was handed in good faith, not for the sake of financial gains. It turned out to be a mistake, from which I learned. That was now nearly seven years ago. If the take away from that event after years of never breaching user trust is that "uBlock Origin can't be trusted in the long run", that's pretty harsh.
I think the story of how uBlock was transfered and then managed in a way that was not what you wished is pretty well known, and I think most people know that you forked back the project to restore that trust, and they appreciate the work you're doing for the community. At least I know I do, so let me take this opportunity to say thank you.
Based on his past actions, I feel comfortable trusting and using uBO until he decides he's done.
As far as uBlock Origin goes, it's one of the extensions I trust the most.
