@rileywilddog Hi! Thanks for the report. We recently removed cached source code archives, looks like we removed more than intended. We will look into fixing that!

Archives can still be generated directly by going to the tag, and using "Download Repository" e.g. https://t.co/lE6vCfdQo9

We are very excited about the future.

you're a bitcoiner that cares about privacy? kick some sats or donate some time to @OpenPriv who do some of the best work in the privacy space. https://t.co/YWREGQnkX5

[Martin Hellspong @MartinHellspong]

I started donating to @OpenPriv a few months ago, because if I, an individual who care a lot about privacy, can't be bothered to contribute my time, or money to projects like this, who will? It is a lot like not voting, and then complaining about the results. Vote! Donate!

Thank you! 💜🎊
