Hi, welcome

No need to feel dumb GitHub can be confusing at the beginning.
Just to clarify: GitHub Desktop is free, and you do not need a paid Copilot plan just to use GitHub or learn Swift.
If you want to cancel or opt out of GitHub Copilot, go to your GitHub settings, then Billing & licensing, and look for the GitHub Copilot subscription. From there, you should be able to manage or cancel it.
If your main goal is only to download or work with a project, GitHub Desktop may help, but it is not required in every case.
Could you share what app or repository you were trying to download/extract? Then someone can guide you step by step.

You’re welcome, I’m glad you found it!

Just a small note: I tried to open the repository link you shared, but it looks like the repo is not found or maybe the link is incorrect/private.
If my previous answer helped solve your problem, you can mark it as the solution. I’d really appreciate it.
And if you need help later with GitHub, GitHub Desktop, Swift, or anything related to the NotificationNanny project, feel free to contact me. I’ll do my best to help.
