Blender has been added to galaxy-gremlins. Give it a try and provide feedback below. Then I can move it to stable. Thanks!

How can you manually download it? I temporarily enabled the repo.

It does work fairly well until you run a scene with 2M+ tris objects (god forbid you try any operators), because the underlying renderer is ancient. Afaik they're rewriting it to vulkan just about right now.

I do not have gremlins repos enabled that's why I asked how download it, I meant manually from some mirror.
