Sourceforge changed hands and as far as I can tell, the new owners put some effort into getting rid of all the crap and even into protecting users from crap added by the original authors.

Filezilla, for example, initially participated in SourceForge's adware program under the old owner, but after the owner change, actually provided a clean version on Sourceforge (while the version on the website was and still is adware-bundled).
