Bought a $60 sourdough starter kit and the jar exploded on day two

Ngl I lost 60 bucks and half my kitchen floor to a wild yeast explosion because I tightened the lid on a warm jar, has anyone else had a fermentation mishap that made them rethink glass containers?

Burp that jar twice a day from now on, or just drape a coffee filter over the top with a rubber band. Glass is fine, it's the seal that'll get you every time.
