Just out of curiosity, can I ask how you were downloading and unzipping it before, that it didn't work?

Just downloading with Safari did the trick

It's a known bug in JDownloader download manager for example. You haven't told us what you're using to download and unzip.

Try downloading it again directly with Safari. If it doesn't unzip automatically, right-click and choose "Open With > Archive Utility".

After you double-click it, is it listed in Activity Monitor? Are there any error messages in Console?

Nothing special about my laptop, just as described in my original post

See the images here for where I mean: https://justgetflux.com/news/pages/macquickstart/

Anything else we should know about your system?

You can double click either in the browser, or in the downloads folder in the dock!
