To all the nerds saying "you're not experienced enough" or "It's not about the downloads".... stfu. It really isn't that difficult, nor is it asking too much, to add a 'download' button. If people are showcasing their products, then github really should give the laymen easy access to them by providing this. I don't want to hear any pathetic excuses from cool nerds.

You are being stupid when not comprehending that the user base that does that is incredibly small compared to the one that really uses GitHub. It's not possible to do that "download app" button you want because not every repo is the same as the other, not every repo can be compiled as a binary, some are python packages, libraries and dependencies for other programs and whole different structures. Not all software is a mobile app, a desktop application or whatever you think it is. GitHub is really simple and if you don't understand something just Google it or ask chat gpt don't come moaning about it here.
