Thanks for creating the app and keeping it accessible and now at least partially open source!

One suggestion regarding releases: it's more appropriate to tag/pack them as Github releases and link to the repository releases instead of hot-linking to the binary on master branch.

This way you're not adding a lot of weight over time in the git repository (since Git doesn't play well with binary versioning) and less prone to be flagged by Github as using it as hosting, plus it's more standard and easier to track releases over time.

Let me know if you have any further doubts or need help with it.

How can I be sure (other than compiling myself) that this code corresponds to this binary?
