I had the same worries before. For me, the first thing I check is whether the site asks for unnecessary stuff like login info or weird permissions. If it does, I walk away. I’ve been using the SnapInsta app because it doesn’t require logging in, and the layout feels straightforward without spammy ads. That’s usually a good sign. Also, I run downloads through antivirus just to be extra sure.
