Hullo.

I hope this is the right venue for this suggestion.

How about adding SHA512 checksums on the download page?  
How about adding torrent and magnet links to the download page?

Hi @gnarlin,

Welcome to FreedomBox. This is the right place for suggestions. During signature verification, hash also verified. So, a separate hash verification should not be required.

We considered torrents, but it requires additional overhead for team to setup and maintain seeding of the torrents. If someone where to seed them reliably, we could generate the torrent/magnet links I suppose.
