- by 1 for patch versions -- with gaps, as some builds are not released.

AttributeError: module 'asyncio' has no attribute 'run'

Python version too old. Update to at least Python 3.7 should fix the issue.

Has anyone the link for the new Mac versions? I can only find it in App Store, but I have no access to the App Store.

Any luck with this?

The best I've been able to do is sideload an .ipa for it, but the experience is not ideal

This would have helped me back then, maybe you could provide us with this?

Now I bought a new personal machine and I am able to download it from the App Store, but it always a good idea to have alternative methods.

Downloaded the IPA from https://decrypt.day/ and sideloaded it using sideloadly, https://sideloadly.io/ (this required an apple developer account, free will do)

Now that you have the app installed on your laptop can you try sharing it. Just drag the app from your application folder, upload it and share the link?

Would like to test out if it'll works - your personal data will not be shared as it's in a seperate folder.

Yes, I can do it.

Yes, I can do it.

Thank you! It worked for me - feel free to remove it
