Didn't sourceforge go to shit some years back with ads, embedding bloatware into downloads, and I don't remember what else? Did it get better again?

It did, but the interface is still dogshit for new users and it's impossible to know how to access a project's page or its download page. When I started using GitHub, I didn't even realize that SourceForge was a git hub for a fucking while, yet I was still downloading stuff from there.
