Sorry, I meant to write that Github is not a software distribution, but a code distribution platform.

And 'mostly harmless' as in it's not inherently malicious - you can use it for harmless stuff. It's merely a tool.

Also I don't really follow how it makes sense that the UI should be bad if they only meant for it to be used with code. Developers are humans too, and the GitHub UI is not great. I use it all the time and still get confused by some of the dumb UI decisions they have made.

Not having a download button being front and center has never been one of them.
