Question Is geometry dash Geode mod safe?

So recently i downloaded Geode and installed it. It runs perfectly on geometry dash with no problems, but is it a virus? i ran the installer through virus total and 1/70 got flagged. windows also warned me before running it that it could be potentially unsafe. https://geode-sdk.org/install this is the link that i installed it from.

its safe
its because virustotal scans it on a lot of antiviruses and some of them are much more sensitive and just plain bad i would reccomend using tria.ge to do a virus scan it lets you open any website/file and test what happens
at the end it gives an report

dude just use windows defender

all those antiviruses are more like viruses by themselves, have you even tried removing one? it's horribly hard, plus most of them scam you

triage isnt a antivirus its a vm for testing the file/website
i mean yeah there is windows defender but its still good to test somethings
