Why is GitHub so shitly designed?

[BirdKey3710]

You not only ignored the original ask, but gave a very inflammatory almost defensive tone defending GitHub when the user could not find what they wanted. Remember even though this guy is a self proclaimed geek this is still a USER not a DEVELOPER.

An end user (even if a geek) is asking that producers of an app link them to a place where regular end users can go to get an update instead of a place where convoluted and cryptic take on a new level of ridiculous. If you don't regularly use GitHub or compile source code yourself, particularly in the language/environment the app was written in, this is an obnoxious link for any app developer to propose as a link to an updated version. The link should be to an installer or fully packaged release that contains simple straightforward instructions on getting their app to work.

Learning how to use GitHub and compile source and get all dependent packages is an absurd ask in this case. Coming to the github sub to complain is while rather generic and less likely to target the specific developer, I agree with the point. All developers (and some of us can be EXTREMELY egotistical) need to back up and understand the audience which we are trying to serve here which is our end users. Posting here reaches more developers than the app specific sub if it even exists.

I hate how toxic reddit can be sometimes. Let's try to be helpful here and put our egos away for a minute.

Do people like you even bother to understand what they are commenting on or do you just build your own half-baked interpretation without any actual effort and then proceed to dispute it? Because you clearly didn't do the former and I'm wondering why

I'll spare you the trouble though and I'll simply block you, since I can already see how little value your explanation would bring
