When you create a crypto wallet online, how do you know that the password, phrases, etc are NOT being intercepted as you create the wallet?

 I would like to know who has a great crypto wallet? My son mention about getting a hardware wallet. Yeah some say that a hardware wallet is best, but who is to know that whoever manufactured that hardware wallet didn't install software that sends the password and phrases back to the manufacturer? The whole crypto wallet thing seems hokey. I've had no problem, for the most part, with Trust Wallet. You have to remember to add the coin in order to view it, that throws some people off on it. If I buy on Coinbase I leave on Coinbase, it's like a frick'n bank and insured, so why pay money to move it??? I looked into hardware wallets, but they actually seemed harder to use to me, and how is that safer when someone could just steal it or you could lose it? I find online safer. Also, it's my understanding, costs a fortune to trade from the hardware wallet back to platform when you want to cash out, IDK. Yeah and it seems like the hardware wallets could have malicious software in them that could steal your password. I'm gonna start a coinbase account and wallet just to play around with, and keep a bare minimum in it.
