Get Ripple Effect
One file per platform. Nothing to sign up for, and nothing that phones home once it is installed.

The installer is not code-signed, so SmartScreen stops it once with “Windows protected your PC”. Choose More info, then Run anyway. The warning is about the missing certificate, not about anything the installer does.
It installs into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Ripple Effect for your account only, so it never asks for an administrator. Running a later installer over it upgrades in place.

The .dmg is neither signed nor notarised, so Gatekeeper blocks it on first launch. Drag the app to Applications, then either right-click it and choose Open, or run the command below.
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Ripple Effect.app"About those warnings
Nothing here is code-signed by an authority your machine already trusts, so Windows and macOS each say so once, in their own words. Neither warning is about what the installer does — both are about the absence of a certificate, and they would appear identically for any small unsigned application.
Linux needs none of this. A real code-signing certificate would remove the SmartScreen warning on Windows and, with notarisation, the Gatekeeper prompt on macOS; both are a known next step rather than an oversight. Signing with a certificate we made ourselves was tried and dropped, because it asked more of you and told you nothing you could check.
