LL download from sourcdeforege

[Teddy]

SourceForge used to be my go-to place for downloading VLC, Linux Lite and many other open source projects. Not anymore. SF has hijacked accounts and used them for their own benefit, without permission from the account owner / maintainer.

GIMP's Windows account has gotten hijacked and SF put revenue-generating adware with the regular installer for GIMP.  It's not just GIMP, either.

According to Ars Technica, these projects recently got hijacked by a SF staff member by the name of "sf-editor1"

• Nearly all of the Apache Foundation Projects - OpenOffice, Apache HTTP Server, etc.
  
• Mozilla Projects - Firefox, Thunderbird & SeaMonkey
  
• Drupal & WordPress Content Management Systems
  
• And more in the article link below...

I've had it with SF. They have basically become FileHippo, but much worse.

Please Jerry, I BEG YOU, move off of SourceForge! Use GitHub or FossHub
