Is my electrical panel safe if it doesn’t say “stab lock,” or should I be concerned about the potential issues with Federal Pacific panels and breakers?

Based on what I’ve seen people saying in the comments, it seems like the issue lies with the Federal Pacific Stab Lock panels and breakers. I checked my panel and I didn’t see anything about stab lock on it. Does that mean I’m good to go? Do you know if the problem with the stab lock panels is primarily with the breakers, the panel itself, or a mix of both?
The stab-lock feature combined with the panel is the issue
All fpe panels are not worth it
There was an issue with the internal components of the breaker and the risk of losing their certification
Do you think the Connecticut Electric breakers at Home Depot are a better option, ?
In my opinion, it’s best to replace the entire panel to avoid any insurance or buyer complications. The ones being sold currently are approved for use
Not all of them were subject to a recall
