Ticket details:
Has there been any consideration to moving away from OSDN? I have had nothing but problems with OSDN and it seems the company was sold to some mobile gaming company ( source: https://osdn.net/projects/docs-en/news/26194 - posted in early 2020 and its a ghost town since) and is no longer monitored. Support tickets go unanswered, I have another old OSDN account I have tried to delete for data privacy reasons and OSDN will not respond to the tickets, and will not delete user accounts, which seems like a data privacy violation. You can see no support tickets have been responded to in almost a year: https://osdn.net/projects/support/ticket/
Also getting super slow download speeds and general website slowness. The OSDN UX is also atrocious and stuck in the 1990s.
Love MinGW but hope to see it somewhere else. Didn't have these issues before it was on OSDN. OSDN Mailing lists seem to work fine, for now, so maybe keep those, but please consider going back to SourceForge or some other provider.
