Tucows Cuts the Crap (removes ads from their download site)

people still use that site?

"With Tucows’ success in wholesale and retail domain names (OpenSRS and Hover, respectively) and more recently with mobile phone service (Ting) and fiber Internet (Ting Internet), tucows.com/downloads has become less relevant when looking at the balance sheet."

I had no idea that:

- Hover is Tucows

- Ting is Tucows

- Ting sells fiber service

- OpenSRS exists

So, nice work PR team? It's been a long time, but Tucows really did used to be the go-to non-scammy software download site. So, to whatever extent that's still a thing people need to use, this is good news!
