Who cares if nobody can work, the important is that those illegal streams are blocked

    the vast amount of projects hosted there definitely won’t ever move away.

    That’s what they said about Sourceforge though.

      Github probably won’t shoot themselves their userbase in the dick quite as spectacularly as Sourceforge did, though.

        Oh, come on. It wasn’t that bad! At least it granted (and still grants) the freedom of choosing which VCS shall make your day harder than necessary.

      To be fair there are still oodles of projects there. I end up on source forge regular basis.

        One of the reasons might be that the number of SVN hosting facilities has decreased over the past two decades.

      I guess. I haven’t lived through its golden age as a developer, but, seeing it now, anything would be better than Sourceforge IMO, so I would understand why people would move away even just for practical reasons
