you just need to do up the quick release real tight (or use Shimano skewer)
He's using a bolt-on hub, albeit with titchy screws. In general, yes, use a Shimano skewer, but don't try to fix the problem by over-tightening - that suggestion indicates that you don't understand the issue and need to go back and reread all of Jobst Brandt's posts on rec.bicycles.tech
Whether you're using tiny screws or a QR skewer on a disc-braked front wheel, the second best* thing you can do is to check the wheel retention system before every ride. A good skewer or small screws should hold the wheel as long as they stay tight, but the brake loads which are trying to eject the wheel also cause the skewer or screws to loosen over time.
*obviously the best thing to do is to throw the fork away and get a through-axle model.

TBF it still work okay, you just need to do up the quick release real tight (or use Shimano skewer).
