Here's a reason for SourceForge hate. At least as of a couple weeks ago, when you go to download a file, you are shown a survey (as a sort of ad). There is no indication that the survey is optional, and initially I thought it was required. If you ignore the survey you can still download the file, and I was able to figure that out eventually. A less experienced user wouldn't be so lucky, thinking that the survey is required, thus revealing personal or business information that they shouldn't have to.
