Rayhunter is a new open source tool we’ve created that runs off an affordable mobile hotspot that we hope empowers everyone, regardless of technical skill, to help search out cell-site simulators (CSS) around the world.

I always find it deeply ironic that valuable tools that are meant to protect people are released in forms that exclude an overwhelming proportion of the people who could use it.
It was the same issue with Ladybird browser up until a month or so ago - they were projecting Windows support only some time in 2027 to 2029. Like, how the hell are you supposed to achieve a critical mass of eyeballs when the vast majority of people who would love to test the product just don’t have the platform to run it on? It’s ideological shortsightedness at its kindest characterization. And I wouldn’t be kind.
Plus, DotNet is almost trivially cross-platform these days and almost ridiculously easy to develop with… for something like an install script you really don’t have an excuse to not hit all three platforms anymore.
Make sure to lodge a complaint with Microsoft about how their OS is incompatible with almost everything else.
Then please help https://github.com/EFForg/rayhunter/issues/65
I agree with everything you said except for this:
But so is Java. Or Kotlin. Or Rust. Or Python. Hell, even JavaScript is acceptable for a simple GUI program that’s meant to be run once to install the real program.
And those are open source and don’t have Microsoft telemetry in the build tools AND IN THE RUNTIME!!! So you now have to taint your Linux or Mac system by installing the JVM we have at home.
