My policy with open source projects like these is to fork the repo and only bring in upstream updates when I'm certain it's safe and necessary
Which is just as risky as instantly updating unless you're really closely keeping an eye on which updates are security related.
that's probably what I might do and build apks myself with forgejo. and/or pull in nel0x's fork instead and build from his code.
