I am using a Mac version 10.12.5. When I click the download link (0.5.x) it takes me to google drive and just sits there with that little loading circle and doesn’t show anything.

It’s weird, because it works here.  
Well, there’s a link for the most recent build:

hi jessica

I assume that you’re clicking on the file, since you get that loading icon, try to right-click and choose download instead. If that doesn’t work either, you can use this temporary link below:

@jaride Hi Jessica, I’m tagging you on your thread so you will get a notification. User CandyFace has linked an alternative download link for you to try out since he also has a MAC. Please try it out and let us know if it works for you.
