Depends where you look. Solend and Uniswap have different risks, to use comparison AAPL and some new hot unknown tech stock have different risks. Uniswap does not have code to pause withdrawals, does not have a DAO or governance structure to change the contract.

If you are skeptical of Binance or Tether audits then you understand the want for open source DeFi.
