Thanks for the feedback. The vast majority of our articles have nothing to do with politics. People don't need to click on them if they don't want to read them.
Our traffic has been growing since my company acquired Slashdot, regardless of what Alexa says. Also, reporting a direct quote from the President of the United States to tech leaders is not "partisan". Posting NYT revenue stats from the Daily Caller IS. Lastly, we do not do things around here in order to increase traffic. We cover things we think are worth covering. If you're triggered by a direct quote then perhaps you should just scroll past the story.
Yes we acquired SourceForge just this year, and yes what you say about reputations is true. SourceForge's improvements this year weren't covered nearly as much as their previous missteps, but we'll continue to improve it regardless for the 1 million+ users we see per day. Ars Technica did a good write up though.
There's still over 1 million users per day on SourceForge, and over 500,000 projects hosted there. Perhaps we've lost some people from back in the day, but it's still a large amount of people using SourceForge every day that we are focused on doing right by.
I don't think anyone should take it personally. Just read another story if they don't want to read it. We've covered controversial stuff in the past and lord knows there's plenty of controversial stuff in the comments of almost every story. If people want to get outraged in the comments that's fine too. I'm listening.
Your original comment was completely inaccurate and off topic, and it got modded down. If anything, people have been driven away by comments like yours that are based on no fact and prompted by a knee jerk reaction to a story or interview you don't like.
I'm always listening. But there are actually some really good questions here if you wade through the outrage and butt hurt. He'll probably give some interesting answers too. We won't post the interview if he refuses to answer some of the more pointed questions about his character or past perceived transgressions.

Bravo
If she said it we'd cover it.
Nobody's forcing anyone to click or read on any story. Scroll on by if you don't want to read it.

Climate science is not a 'left' issue. Sorry. The uptick in political articles was due to the recent election. They will subside.
Right you are.
Can you point out where I ad hominem attacked someone? Also I didn't delete any comments.
Ad hominem? I just clarified a few facts.
I was pointing out some facts. Carry on.
If Clinton was President-Elect, and had said this, we would cover it.
Lol? He mentioned me in his comment and I responded. I also own the place, not an employee.

Your "shitpost" is inaccurate and off topic. Take the hiatus.

Well, there are still millions of people who bought an iPhone and didn't drill holes.
Check in a little while and you may have some
