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.

    Any time I hear "some people say..." I expect it to end with "All we know, is he's called The Stig!"

    Some say he's also the King of the Potato People. Other say he only beat him at chess by unloading both barrels of a shotgun into the board. All we know, is he's called The Stig!
