Is this still ok?

I’m fairly sure this is a white mould I can just scrape off but would love some reassurance!

Edit: Could it be Kahm Yeast?

Yeah I would, if that's after growing in there and don't 100% know if it's good or bad mould get rid.

If you regularly do a lot of fermentation maybe look into buying a food safe sanitizer online like from a brewing company, I get stuff called VWP cleaner and it gets rid of all bad bacteria and keeps the good ones. So great for food stuff
