All I remember is that they used to automatically inject ads and spyware to downloadable files. No idea if they still do that, most likely yes
It was amazing for years and then they ran out of money. When it completely crashed and went full ad insanity and crashed again, someone else took over with the intent of making it great again. That may be a poor choice of words or it may not.
I also remember when it got taken over by new management with the promise of improving things. That was a couple of years ago IIRC, and it’s still a septic tank of advertisements and download countdowns.
I remember when sourceforge was a good place to get windows software, as I recall it took over from Tucows.
Tucows?! Now that’s deeplore from the before times.
The Ultimate Collection of Winsock Software.
Winsocks:
Yea, i remember ending up on there more often when I still got my windows machine, but even then it had that weird aura to it. Just downloading it made me feel like it is not the intended way.
First CVS I pushed code to.
Maybe I’m tired, or maybe I’m traumatised from sourceforge, but my god did this give me some terrifying laughter
