as a non-dev, i relate to this 
Discussion
Sometimes there is nothing to compile, sometimes it is better to build it yourself to be sure that the resulting executable is not maliciously modified.
Most of the projects on github are from amateur people without the resources to document and do everything necessary to release a new version (maintain support, etc).
I understand you, it has happened to me, but Github is not the Appstore 🤓😀💜
i have no idea what it even means to "build it yourself", so that's level you're dealing with
🤣🤣🫂🤓💜
There are programs that it is preferable to download the source code and convert it into an exe or any other executable (with the appropriate tools), to ensure that nobody introduces code that modifies the behavior of the program.
Build it yourselve is basically this 😀
ah, well TIL then 😂
Example: LOVE is what some humans refer to as what. How many examples of Love is …
Some created icons called Prophets
Sent to world to be LOVE
ICONIC Carbon salts to what …
Then religions … separate names for same thing.

I think you answered on another note 🤣
Here we talk about nerds and humans🤓🤓🤓💜
The challenge with telling non-dev folks to “just build it themselves” is that it’s like an electrician telling me to “just upgrade my 60amp service to 100amp service myself”. I don’t even know where to start with that sort of thing. It probably feels pretty to clear to them, but that kind of clarity comes with experience (and often relevant employment).
That said, to the person who wants everything awesome on GitHub to be “compiled” - when it comes to things that technically could be - I guarantee you that much of it is tools and apps that that the creator doesn’t want to be used by folks who don’t know what they are doing. Either it’s not production ready enough, it’s an “easy to shoot yourself in the foot” kind of tool, or they don’t want tons of non-dev related questions about it. GitHub is a collaborative development, version control, and deployment platform (which certainly includes some folks hosting their production ready executables there). If you want to be able to use what folks produce at that “level”, you’re going to have to invest in becoming a little, well, nerdy. Alternatively, there is literally the rest of the internet to busy oneself with.
Ohhhhhh I THINK I SEE
DOUBLE VISION BE A TRIP.
Crap , so now I have to filter down further as I do in my regular workflow. IRL
BUT Spirtually, or is that too nerdy ? 🤣🤣🤣
Can I just remove myself from various feeds or make lists that show the content
Automatically automation from the very start …
So if we’re doing the movie the matrix as an example, then it’s showing us to the automate ourselves and then after they do that what comes next? And maybe that’s the part I just shut up about.

An exe wouldn’t always work out. Blame the OS creators like Microsoft for that. Quit yer bitchin’
