Can you actually host code on SourceForge? I've been searching for 10 mins in a couple different projects and they only thing I've found is one link to a private SVN server.

Yes you can: https://sourceforge.net/p/npppluginmgr/code/ However very few projects choose to. Most just host binaries. And have a github link in the project description.

Thanks for the example and explanation.

That ship has sailed. SourceForge has little to offer in their API: https://anypoint.mulesoft.com/apiplatform/sourceforge/#/port... Bitbucket for comparison: https://developer.atlassian.com/bitbucket/api/2/reference/re...

Ship's still in port actually. Over a million users a day. They're on board and we're improving it for them. Bitbucket's cool too, but it's just a different ship.

GitHub took over for SourceForge during the lost years.

When you guys came back and solicited feedback and ways to improve, I begged you to follow suit.
