Sourceforge not playing ball with add blocker - move C::B?

(1/2) > >>

Wkerry:
Just tried to access C::B on source forge and it looks like it has implemented a new "feature" to make me turn on adds that I hate.

Maybee someone should look if it is possible to move off sourceforge to github.

Михаил Агарков:
Then I suggest moving to Codeberg since GitHub is known to abuse user's rights and train their Copilot AI on public user data without proper attribution and that breaks the GPL.

gd_on:
You can also add an add blocker extension in your browser. For me, it's OK with Adblock plus in firefox.

If all you need is to clone C::B code, you can use my github mirror
https://github.com/arnholm/codeblocks_sfmirror

Btw I agree 100% with this

Can you please stop spamming your web site until it grows and becomes more useful to people as at the moment it has only a handful of downloads and less than 0.001% of the normal download files compared to the normal sites that are used by devs.
