I have taken an editing pass on the main wiki page:

  https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/bcpierce00/unison/wiki__;!!IBzWLUs!T-vZEvXJsccGgcx1zvcNC9iEEfwuSYCspj-DWj3-WZJIahBYfuyKq5RZ1sJPd7IrCmkrw5_fV-CapqADSA$ 

In addition to nicer doc pointers, I have pruned some old things and
moved some to a historical section.  Ocaml versions are no longer a
concern, and migration to 2.52 should be in the past.

I renamed the "Downloading Unison" page and updated it:

  https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/bcpierce00/unison/wiki/Obtaining-Unison-Sources-and-Binaries__;!!IBzWLUs!T-vZEvXJsccGgcx1zvcNC9iEEfwuSYCspj-DWj3-WZJIahBYfuyKq5RZ1sJPd7IrCmkrw5_fV-AL1-54mg$ 

Please send me (unicast) any fixes.  For example, packaging systems
that say it is TUI only might have both, and there might be a package
path missing for some systems.

I don't want to list every GNU/Linux distribution as it would be
overwhelming; most of them just have a package called unison and this
does not seem remarkable or confusing.  People running each will just
run

  "$INSTALL_PROG $INSTALL_VERB unison"

and it seems usually that works.   But if there's a trend for unison-gui
or unison-tui, a hint of which to look for seems in order.

I dropped a few thing that no longer exist.
