Year ago, long before I developed software, I would search for some software (to use, not to extend) and often find that the way to obtain it was by visiting SourceForge. In many ways, SourceForge and GitHub can be directly compared. Was I a developer for using SourceForge in this manner?

- hunter2_ 6y agoRegular users will pay no mind to source code on GitHub, but they can certainly download releases/binaries without being a developer. youtube-dl happens to have a separate website catering to this use case, but many projects use GitHub for this use case. That said, I suppose only the hosting of source code is within the scope of this post, so nevermind!
