Forum and main site prompt me to download a file when visiting ... ?

Hi to everyone.  Both the XFCE main website and forum prompt me to download a file named "download.bin" on my Samsung browser when I visit it on my Galaxy phone.  I am on OneUI 9 (using Smart Launcher).  This has been going on for a couple days.  The main website and forum work well on my regular desktop browser (Firefox).  Whoever runs the website and forum backend should take a look at what's going on.

Has anyone else had this happen, too?  Thanks.

The place to report bugs for the website is https://gitlab.xfce.org/www/www.xfce.or … list-route so to bring it to the attention of the webmaster.

However, given that it works fine on our desktop, its most likely due to an issue or bug with the Samsung Browser.

Thanks for replying.  I downloaded Opera (Chrome-based) and Firefox for my phone.

The forum and website work normally with both browsers.  Obviously, it's Samsung's problem.

I've been toying around with the idea of switching to something else on my phone, anyway.

Appreciate your input here.
