Again. I've said before that release downloads are an additional feature. But it's a feature most people use. Neither did I say it was easy, nor it was cheap. Just that it makes sense and that it doesn't take anything away from the professionals regarding UI quality or focus.

It's an additional feature of GitHub that literally everyone uses. Therefore it has purpose. I think it's ridiculous to argue against it.

Explain to me how developers or the UI would suffer from easier access to releases?

It's not a compromise to make another download button for the last release as well. No one looses.

So you never downloaded a program on GitHub?

No one everever said you need to compromise its focus on developers. There is no compromise to be made. It's just a stupid button. Stop arguing lol.

Do most people who use Excel also make art with it? Because sometimes devs also just download exe files on GitHub :D

They don't just always copy code from there.

It doesn't have to be a compromise imo. Most people just need a visible download button on the front pages. Wouldn't hurt devs at all. I mean, even devs sometimes struggle with this lol.

Imo they aren't even trying, because it's not that hard to make it better. Doesn't even have to be a compromise. Most people just need a visible download button for the programs, that's all.

GitHub has bad UX for people who just wanna download and use the programs

From my point of view it's a bull!

Broken memeses

If you play these old games in fullhd etc, it actually feels like the game you remember. If you play it in original resolution it's nothing like that.

Or just use the cracked versions if you have android

Also depends where you go I guess. I just know that in the Balkans they are more chill about it, because Tito was one of the 'friendlier' dictators. So some people wish to go back to a united Yugoslavia. Makes sense considering the rising ethnic tensions in the post-yugoslavia days. Most of the eastern european countries however will probably have a more negative stance on this (Poland, CZ etc).

And my bet is that you'll definitely have a hard time in Indonesia, because they still make the communist responsible for a lot of deaths that happened in the 60s - good documentary about it is 'The Act of Killing'. Also Cambodia... dunno about Thailand

Don't you think that depends where you go? In some parts of the world you'd probaly be killed for it

Unintentional but not unexpected

I'm also on the edge with H

lol

That's a subjective thing I would say. Many people on here would agree that playing a game can also turn into a conversation. If my kids were to play Pokemon or Zelda for example, I could engage with it quite well. It just depends if you know the franchise/culture, making it easier to resonate with.

And tbh I didn't particularly enjoy my family looking at my drawings when I was younger, cause I didn't wanna get a comment about it.
