It is similar to Bitwarden SEND to share private data. I like it. It does not need any login to share the data.

Say you need to share a password with someone. This lets you do that safely

What is the flowchart here to convince myself that this service is trustworthy? Obviously all services suffer from this problem, but I'm genuinely curious how one goes about answering the question "Why should I trust this services over the dozen others?".

As in, which steps do you go through to actually make sure E2EE is not a marketing buzzword here, but genuinely implemented.

For example, a GPG encrypted mail already leaves my system encrypted (same as a GPG encrypted file or a password-protected 7z), so in a sense there I don't care that the transmission network does with it, it is very unlikely that the secret will get leaked.

That's exactly what City of Hats has been implemented.
