Is it safe to manually download a package from this site and then install the .deb file using apt? Is there anything more secure about using apt to download the package?

    Yes it’s safe apt doing same when u installing something but doing it automatically.So u can just do

    sudo apt-get install --download-only htop
    

    It will store .deb in ur directory
