What doesn't work? You need to be more specific.

The exe file doesn’t load up, even with wine installed. From what I can tell nothing was happening from a user perspective

I don't have a personal machine with Mac OS to test it, so you're pretty much on your own. I suspect that the downloaded file is not marked as executable so double-clicking it doesn't work, that's something I plan to improve, but for now you'll have to mark it as executable manually on Linux / Mac.

The newest release has correct file permissions, you can run DHT by double-clicking, I verified it works in a VM. The only issue is that since Big Sur, you have to manually approve opening all 4 files in the Security dialog, which is excessive and annoying.

But this is an open-source project that cannot justify spending money and time on doing things the way Apple wants, so if you have an issue with that, you're gonna have to take it up with Apple.
