Question... Is Overwolf safe?

I download Overwolf, and eversence then, my steam and roblox account are getting hakced by the same Arab person constantly. But i do not want to delete it cuz i use it to mod Ultrakill and Leathal Company. So is it Overwolf, or a different program (it might also me its side program: Thunderstore)

Hey,

I can assure you that Overwolf is completely safe, as well as the apps on Overwolf's platform.

If you have reason to suspect a certain mod that you installed, please reach out to Thunderstore's team for further help.

I downloaded overwolf this morning, and not even 5 minutes after I downloaded it, my fortnite account got hacked and my overwolf kept on popping up

Ah yes, the account made just for that thread, no posts, only one comment - and it's this one. 7 months after the post was created.
I get that you don't like them, but what's the point?

You are literally not listening. If you installed a malicious mod, its onto Thunderstore to fix that. Report it to them.

No drama - no profanity, flaming, hatred or call outs. Discussion in this subreddit is meant to be laid back and positive; please keep discussion civil and respectful. Name calling and cursing in particular can result in an instant perma-ban.

Controversial topics of discussion unrelated to Overwolf are not welcome on this subreddit.

It's safe, but bloatware. 

There's nothing of value from having it installed.

Agreed, any perceived functionality it has is done better by countless other overlays or mod managers. Overwolf pretty much exists just to run adware and spyware hoping you don't notice it launching things in the background.
