Seems this program has been abandoned, at least for Linux. They pulled the .80-5 download and haven't released any new builds. Current version is .87.

They also didn't deliver on their open source promise for 2021.

Personally I don't trust this program at all, not that I trust Slack either. Only reason I tried it is due to the long standing issue for the official client not logging in.
