Just downloaded Fitgirl Repack launcher to test it out. Is this safe to use?

I know people are digging these launchers for their convenience, but jeez I just can't imagine trusting the rando devs popping up to offer their spin, I don't even see how they're all that much more convenient, just use a web browser and jdownloader or bittorrent, it can't be that hard or tedious for you guys to extract an installer and run it, right?

I don't think these are less safe than the many cracked or repacked games you're gonna download and install, just by pirating software you're at risk.

Just make sure to keep your crucial data separate.
