I don't remember any era of sourceforge where it had good UI.

I also don't remember anyone ever calling it a "software forge".

This is such an interesting thing of generational difference, since I remember sourceforge fondly before the crazy era of so many ads.

Now that I think of it, Sourceforge is perhaps the first good example of enshittification in this domain that I can think of.

The thing about enshittification is, first you need to eyeballs and brand, before you can sully it. Sourceforge was great for a while.
