Friendly reminder to add in your testament where your private keys are!
Definitely record where you've put any wallet information where your heirs can access it. Definitely use a metal plate for your seed. Its pretty cheap generally too (eg the blockplate or steelwallet)

Node vs Ledger. Atm I have my sats stored on my ledger, but friends are pushing me to move them to a node. I’m not tech savvy, and building a node seems like a hassle in comparison to the ease of a ledger. What’s the better thing to do? What are the pros/cons of both systems?
I wrote a guide for how to properly store your Bitcoin in a self custody way. It's called The Tordl Wallet Protocols. I'd recommend checking them out, you don't need to be tech savvy.

Is Ledger Safe?
You are trusting Ledger and their supply chain. This is also true of any other hardware wallet. I absolutely support fully open source hardware wallets more than others because more eyes mean more likely to spot bugs. However, open source does not protect you from malicious or compromised supply chains. If you want to protect yourself from that, you should be using multisig with multiple different hardware wallet producers. I would recommend reading through The Tordl Wallet Protocols to learn about how to do that properly.

Just moved everything to a cold wallet and I am super happy to be in control of my keys now. Is there anything else I should know?
I recommend looking through The Tordl Wallet Protocols, holistic guides to how to store your Bitcoin safely. It goes into seed storage, inheritance, multisig, and more.
Multi sig is more secure and eliminates any single point of failure. Read this: https://github.com/fresheneesz/TordlWalletProtocols

Seed Phrase Anxiety
I'd recommend following some of the work that's been done in this area, like the Tordl or Glacier wallet protocols to see some options.

Is 0.1 Bitcoin good to buy a Hardware wallet?
Safepal looks promising, I've never heard of it before. It uses a secure element, they're trying to open source their wallet. I don't see evidence they've done it yet, nor what they plan to open source other than what's on their github which doesn't seem to include firmware that I can see. At very least, since its not open source yet (or if it is somewhere I can't see, it hasn't been open source long) it might have a good amount more vulnerabilities than other wallets. But again, looks promising from a quick look over.

Coldcard post anti-forensics for paranoid people
As you can see, the default firmware of Coldcard is hardcoded with values d13e and cc10. We are going to change it to make it look like a benign USB device, more on it later. First, clone the original firmware from Github: https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware We now need to edit the file called ./stm32/COLDCARD/shared/usb.py: COINKITE_VID = 0xd13e CKCC_PID = 0xcc10

Hardware/Software wallets and backdoors implemented by different nations?
Software altered? You were supposed to download from source and flash it yourself. So why did you alter it? No one other than you could have altered it! https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware

Multisig 2 of 3 for a single person, with all cold wallets as Tails + Electrum? Is it a good idea for safer security? Or just an unnecessary overkill?
I have heard of these coldcards before (https://coldcard.com/). But couldn't get it. What are the odds of a coldcard when compared to a Tails + electrum? Thanks.

Is Ledger wallet planning to update its firmware with the Seed XOR feature?
I take a look at https://github.com/Coldcard/firmware/blob/master/docs/seed-xor.md
- Ledger CEO: we have made the decision to accelerate the open sourcing roadmap! We will include as much of the Ledger operating system as possible, starting with core components of the OS, and Ledger Recover, which won’t be released until this work is complete.
