Yeah, but as far as I can tell there's hasn't been malware in fitgirl repacks. So, I suppose I am outsourcing my vetting to them.

It's really a question of how much effort I want to put in finding a different source that's not dangerous. The extra time it takes to unpack them is okay then.

GOG games is fine as well, but they don't have everything and direct downloads aren't always stable for me.
