It’s not that I don’t trust, but I want to understand. What is actually happening and how do these Repack thingies work?

And why are they called that 😂

Thanks in advance.

Edit: thanks so much for the replies all, I think I got it! :)

To add to this: I consider myself relatively tech savvy for somebody who is not “a coder“ or similar. That being said, whenever I am interested in a project or something for my computer and I am directed to a GitHub repo, I immediately start calculating how badly I want to do the thing against the steps that are being given to me. If somebody has a stable/relatively easy to run package (like Dolphin), I am far more likely to move forward.

As a programmer, I am the same way because I'm lazy, lol
