That is some wild shit. Anyways for anyone else somewhat new to all this: when hosting anything, try to stick to reputable projects 1st and be always wary of shady installation tactics (I believe yesterday someone posted about curl bash. This is just a single example).
If you want to try something new (as in brand new project), try it isolated 1st on some VM (proxmox helps a lot with this). When you are confident and more people give an approval, then think about putting on the main environment

One of the first things I look for are longevity, last updated/activity, and then I look at the issues posted and responses. I like mature apps because I don’t possess the intelligence to audit code.
curl bash is not as bad as people think. Nobody downloads and reverse engineers binary packages off of these websites before running them with the same permissions.
