1. I didn't say it was for installing software, it's just an example of a stupidly simple task that is turned into complex acrobatics on github.
2. A bitcoin wallet isn't for creating a backup, but if it's not intuitive to do so its a big problem. You can't test or work on software without installing it.
The 3-5 most important functions of any software or app should be intuitive enough such that you don't have to read a manual to perform them. More advanced things sure, but the most basic functions should be visually clear through its design.
I'm sorry if you are taking mild offense, but Github is a UX disaster and nobody can use that thing without basically taking a course in how to navigate it. I used to absolutely despise having to go over there, and even today while using it normally I sometimes stop to look at it from a design perspective and just sit in awe at how bad it is.
--------------------------
Seriously the next time you are on github, just honestly *look* at it and tell me that anything in that design makes intuitive sense & could be naturally understood by someone who isn't familiar with it.
