Why

The upstream NoopApp/noop repo has been deletedgh can't resolve it, and raw.githubusercontent.com/NoopApp/noop/main/docs/stats/release.json returns 404 (the ryanbr/noop equivalent returns 200). So a batch of references point at a dead repo.

What this fixes (live 404s only)

Case-sensitive sweep of NoopApp/noop and the URL-encoded NoopApp%2Fnoopryanbr/noop:

  • README — the 12 stats badges (their img.shields.io endpoint URLs were …%2FNoopApp%2Fnoop%2F… → 404).
  • Issue templates (bug_report.yml + config.yml) — FAQ / Troubleshooting / WHOOP-5.0 / Discussions links. The fork's wiki has those pages (they return 302; NoopApp returns 404). (fix: update broken links to ryanbr/noop as canonical source #54 missed these.)
  • SUPPORT.md — issue/discussion links.
  • Tools/refresh-stats-badges.py, release.sh, update-altstore-source.sh (GitHub API / raw endpoints).

Deliberately not changed

  • Homebrew (brew tap noopapp/noop, NoopApp/homebrew-noop, docs/HOMEBREW.md, update-homebrew-cask.sh) — ryanbr/homebrew-noop doesn't exist yet, so repointing would swap one dead tap for another. Follow-up: create the tap, then update. The case-sensitive sweep left all lowercase noopapp and homebrew-noop strings intact.
  • Historical release notes / CHANGELOG, in-app "What's New" changelog cards, and provenance comments ("recipe in NoopApp/noop PR #600") — a dated record, not live links.
  • The app's update-check + Settings links are already ryanbr/noop (verified), so nothing functional in the app was broken.

Provenance

Curated from the good parts of #54 (royabby365) — excludes its unrelated 277-line Android Puffin-capture files and its brew-tap change, and adds the issue-template links #54 didn't cover. Docs/config/scripts only — no code, nothing to compile.

The upstream NoopApp/noop repo has been deleted (gh can't resolve it; its
raw.githubusercontent.com stats JSON returns 404), so a pile of references now
point at a dead repo:

  - README stats badges (raw.githubusercontent.com/NoopApp/noop/.../docs/stats/*.json → 404)
  - the bug-report issue template + its config (FAQ / Troubleshooting / WHOOP-5.0 /
    Discussions links) — the fork's wiki DOES have those pages, so they resolve on ryanbr
  - SUPPORT.md issue/discussion links
  - Tools/ dev scripts that hit the GitHub API (refresh-stats-badges.py, release.sh,
    update-altstore-source.sh)

Case-sensitive sweep of `NoopApp/noop` and the URL-encoded `NoopApp%2Fnoop` → ryanbr,
which deliberately leaves the Homebrew tap references (lowercase `noopapp/noop`,
`NoopApp/homebrew-noop`) untouched — `ryanbr/homebrew-noop` doesn't exist yet, so
repointing the brew instruction would just swap one dead tap for another. Homebrew is a
separate follow-up (create the tap first).

Not touched: historical release notes / CHANGELOG, the in-app "What's New" changelog
cards, and code provenance comments ("recipe in NoopApp/noop PR #600") — those are a
dated record, not live links. The app's actual update-check + Settings links already
point at ryanbr/noop.

Curated from the good parts of #54 (excludes its unrelated Android capture files); also
covers the issue templates, which #54 missed.

Two live-dead links to the deleted upstream repo that the ryanbr#60 sweep missed:

- The in-app "What's New" AltStore-source instruction pointed at
  raw.githubusercontent.com/NoopApp/noop/main/altstore-source.json (404). The
  live manifest is at ryanbr/noop; repoint both platforms' changelog entry.
- tools/linux-capture/README.md linked issue #194 at NoopApp/noop (404) → ryanbr.

Targeted at those exact URLs only — the historical 'NOOP is back on GitHub'
changelog card (which narrates a past NoopApp move) is deliberately left as-is.
