  • A disk image beside the zip. The manual download is now
    Tideline-<version>-macos-universal.dmg: a window with the app on the left,
    the Applications folder on the right, and an arrow between them. Dragging it
    across is the whole install, and there is no unpacking step to get wrong —
    which also retires the oldest support question, the zip inside a zip that
    comes off the Actions page instead of the release.

    It is also the first place there is room to say the thing a zip cannot:
    Tideline runs in the menu bar and has no Dock icon. That is the first question
    anybody has after installing it, and now it is answered before they ask.

    The zip stays, and stays the asset the in-app updater fetches. An update
    should be a file the app can unpack on its own rather than a volume it has to
    mount, so the two downloads exist for two different readers. Homebrew keeps
    reading the zip as well.
