    the releases section is in the same place every time, on every github repo everywhere. if you struggle to find it after the first time, then the skill check is working. come back when your basic pattern recognition is turned back on.

    if there is no binary release and you can’t figure out how to proceed, the skill check is working and you probably shouldn’t be fucking around with it until you know what you’re doing.

    everything doesn’t have to be for everyone.

      I didn’t say that the releases section isn’t in the same place every time, I’m saying that the download isn’t always placed in the releases section. Sometimes it’s in the description instead, sometimes it’s somewhere else entirely, sometimes there is no download at all because they expect you to compile it.

      Don’t put words into my mouth.

        GitHub is literally a source code repository, and git is for tracking and managing changes in programming projects (among other things). The developers that have releases do it as a courtesy.
