this repository showed up in my search resutlts when serching for "barik". Looks super sus. No actual code published, just a readme and a few releases with windows exe's despite the fact it also talks about a macOS menu bar replacement? How dumb is this person ?

Not sure what action can you take here, though... 😕

I think this is a bot farm that generates malicious repositories based on existing repositories on GitHub, creating readme files using GPT. I noticed this repository almost at the very beginning of the project, and unfortunately, GitHub moderation did not respond to my complaint.

You can report the violation here: https://support.github.com/contact/report-abuse?category=report-content&report=IcedOutShadow&report_content_url=https://github.com/IcedOutShadow/barik
