I took a look, the site source is here:
https://github.com/style-hub/hub-server

The page is by Klas Karlsson and features only his own work, so
perfectly legitimate. Klas is probably the most prolific contributor the
style hub at
https://plugins.qgis.org/styles/?order_by=-upload_date&&is_gallery=true and
well respected (by me anyway, I am sure the rest of the QGIS community too).

We do have a plan to split the official QGIS resources plugin from the
aforementioned link into its own web site and will try to make it a
beautiful experience, taking hints from Klas' work where needed.

Thanks!

Regards

Tim
