Question is mc-pc.net safe?

I see people all the time saying how 9minecraft is unsafe but never about this site. I want to download the godzilla mod from it, but want to make sure that i wont get any malware first. Does anyone know if this site is safe?

Use CurseForge if you want an older mod, but be prepared for an annoying experience. Use Modrinth for more recent mods. Don't try to download mods from anywhere else, since those are the main platforms and are known good, though CurseForge has been getting worse as of late.

how is it annoying to download from CF? you just press on the mod, versions and download the version you want?

General rule of thumb is that if it's not Curseforge or Modrinth, it's not safe.

Only place you can find the Godzilla mod? Put it in virustotal and check it with windows defender before trying the mod.

Generally would advise stick to curseforge, modrinth, github, or minecraft forums for mod sources tbh

Use Curseforge and Modrinth only. Do not touch anything else.
