I noticed the application contacts a German server on first launch, couldn't see why it would require this in any of the documentation, is there a specific reason for this?

Cheers

That should only happen when you ticked "check for new version on start" in the context menu. When the check is enabled, it loads an XML file (a copy of this one) from my server to determine if there's a newer version available.

I picked that route because I looked around how to best solve it and many said that accessing raw files directly from github can be a bit... unreliable...

Anyway, I added a note about it on the wiki page.
