Is nuclear fusion considered to be safer than nuclear fission for energy production?

Wasn’t the H-bomb (fusion) supposed to be way more powerful and unpredictable than the A-bomb (fission)? Kinda confused here and I’m certainly mixing bombs with energy production. But if you could give me the essential I’d appreciate it. Thank you.

If cold nuclear fusion could be achieved and generate surplus energy it would be safe. Bombs are designed to be unsafe nuclear power stations are designed to be safe.
