How many of your Anker chargers carry a UL or other safety approval mark on them?

All of Apple's do.

Having a UL mark is not an indication that a product is 100% safe to use, but it at least shows that the manufacturer cares enough about making a safe product to do the paperwork and have a 3rd party like UL review their design and manufacturing to ensure the product is as safe as can be.

Mine is IEC 62368-1 conformant (the corresponding UL standard is also 62368-1). It also has a TÜV SÜD marking for US compliance.

That's good to hear! Maybe Anker has improved in this area since the last time I bought one of their products.

How many people even know what a UL safety approval mark is or cares about it's existence on a charger?

Effectively no one, unless you're an engineer who has part of their job be UL compliance or until you as a consumer have to talk to an insurance company about why your house burned down.
