TBF, they could probably make the "releases" page more prominent rather than having it buried in all the "code" stuff.

It ain't called git-hub for nothing. The social network for gits. How else are they supposed to behave?
From someone in computer networking classes: "I don't use GitHub. This is too complicated" Like bruh. The instructions are right there in the readme.
There's also the time where we were asked to read temperature from a sensor, and everyone went straight to chatgpt. Meanwhile, first search result, full repo with full noob instructions.
The next generation of script kiddies is going to be iPad babies. It’ll be interesting to see, since the majority can’t use anything in tech unless it’s an app.
We built computer labs in schools, to teach kids how to use computers. Then we decided computers are ubiquitous enough that we didn’t need computer labs anymore. And now we have an entire generation that doesn’t know how to use computers, because they use their phones and tablets for everything instead.
I saw a tweet that said something like "It's amazing that somehow we were only able to produce a single generation that knows how to properly use computers" and now it lives rent-free in my head.
Meh, maybe 10% of a single generation at most know how to use computers. Technically savvy millenials vastly overestimate how technically savvy other millenials are.
Git gud.
He eventually found the executable by Googling for it online and is now part of a botnet.
Happy ending then I take it
"why doesn't this python command line script have an executable ui?"
I have to say that I absolutely love the title this man chose to share his anger.
Me when I have to do anything other than copy and paste build, or package manager, commands /s
The problem with github isn't really a problem. It's just accessible enough to borderline tech people who want a one click solution to a problem. They can find it, but using it requires more skill than they have. It's a code repository, not an app store. The most useful things I find on github aren't from some massive app developer, they're from some guy who happened to have the same problem as me. Rather than screaming at that guy for an executable, level up. Learn something.

You guys realize this was on a joke community, right? Most of the original comments missed it too...
r/github is a joke community?
