Hi all, We should resist to become all “slaves" of Apple by giving in. As long as Apple does not deprecate the mechanism to override these warnings I opt for the approach Christiaan is in favor of.
Unfortunately the open source community manages not to bombard Apple with complains that the mechanism to override this blocking of all not Apple Store software is not offered by default. But in my view that is the approach we should go for, not the opposite. Otherwise we risk to harm open source developments in general, I fear. Regards, Andreas ETH Zurich Prof. em.

However, after upgrading to macOS Big Sur, I was once again notified that the app needs to be updated… (see attached screenshot). I can of course disable this check and run it anyway, but why not put this through the Apple process and get it checked and signed. At the same time, I’m curious why still stay on sourceforge? It feels so antiquated and full of commercials that I’d rather stay away from it… I personally use GitHub, but there are others like bitbucket and gitlab. While I’m not a macOS dev, I suspect that it would be easier to get help from others if hosted on github.
