From 47f82c10da7e404e89d45447321f50ca9b5786eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Altfield Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 16:10:55 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] adding github alt mirros to docs (#6679) * adding github alt mirros to docs This commit updates the documentations downloads page * https://simplex.chat/downloads/ I added a list of mirrors, which currently just includes the simplex self-hosted forgejo site (git.simplex.chat). This is necessary, since GitHub has been throwing up authwalls on read-only pages, including the "releases" section -- preventing some users (especially high-risk users using hardened browsers, VPNs, and Tor) from being able to download SimpleX from GitHub.
