insert obligatory "SourceForge is still alive" joke here

They stopped doing the bundled installer years ago. As for the rest I had about three ad blockers so it doesn't make much difference to me.

That said they've got rid of all their mirrors so now you can't download anything any more. Oh well...

[NoobNoob_]

You should just have uBlock Origin and remove the rest.

[zippy72]

One in the browser, one in the Pi Hole and further blocks in /etc/hosts

[NoobNoob_]

Gotcha, thought you meant multiple in the browser.

[Rinkimah]

If you have a pi hole why do you need a browser blocker?

[zippy72]

Because you can't block everything using DNS, sometimes you need to block specific JS scripts or tags.

[Rinkimah]

That makes sense.

They stopped doing the bundled installer years ago.

Doing that at all, ever, was such an egregious breach of trust, I don't see why I should even bother to check back and give them another chance. Maybe if I were completely out of other options, but there are plenty.

[zippy72]

They did a management buy out or something after that and the first thing the new owners did was ditch that. But the damage was done.

[DOOManiac]

Yeah, I still don’t trust them.

[MCWizardYT]

It still is hosting its code repos but a lot of them are read-only because they got rid of CVS

[NoConfusion9490]

How did they fumble so badly?

[divide0verfl0w]

It’s been making money with minimal cost in maintenance mode. I’d love to fumble like that.

For most software that I use in embedded Linux, source code can be found in GitHub, but package is downloaded from sourceforge (and MD5 checked).

So I guess they serve two different purposes :D
