This will remove extended attributes and allow the file to be opened.

Same here. I was able to run it by using Java and the right parameters.

Thanks for raising this issue! I believe this warning on MacOS happens because we don't codesign the executable. At the moment, I'm doing the release builds on my local machine, which is problematic anyway. So we should at some point move to Github actions to do the release builds and run codesign then as well.

I'll try to get to it in the next months, but if anyone is up to taking over this task, I'd appreciate this a lot.

Thanks!
