If you read SoylentNews, Ars Technica, Reddit, or anywhere other than the other site, you've probably heard about SourceForge hijacking accounts and monetizing open source software with crapware installers. It seems the other site is intent on burying that information. Perhaps they don't consider it newsworthy?
For those still using SourceForge, there are many superior alternatives.

I think the more likely scenario is:
1. Soulskill sees the SourceForge stories in the queue, decides to post one.
2. Soulskill stops himself at the last minute, decides that finding a new job would be a pain; and anyway Samzenpus is up next.
3. Samzenpus checks in, sees the backlog of SourceForge stories, swears at Soulskill.
4. But, Samzenpus reasons, Timothy is always game for controversy.
5. Timothy checks in, doesn't even notice any of the SourceForge stories.
6. Now the queue starts filling up with stories about Slashdot editors.
7. Soulskill checks in. Procrastination didn't work this time.
