• 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.

    • No, what you mean is YOU use it and you’re assuming most people use GitHub the way you do. GitHub is first and foremost a platform for GIT. Git has nothing to do with releases or file downloads per se. Time spent improving the releases UI is time not spent doing other UI improvements. If you need more proof that it’s not worth it to spend time on the release UI, just take note of the fact that GitHub is not spending time on the release UI. If everyone was using it and it was deficient, do you really think that would be the case?
