[What site do you want to be added?] https://www.optifined.com/

What game does the site repost content for? (Example: Minecraft, Subnautica, etc) Minecraft

Do you have anything else worth mentioning? It attempts to imitate the real website for the Optifine mod, utilising a stolen logo from the real Optifine site (Optifine.net) in an attempt to lure people, and whenever I open the link, the antivirus program which I use flags it as containing malware. This may require investigation, as I simply do not want to put my computer at further risk. Cheers.

While the download link does usually redirect to malware, it's not actually redistributing OptiFine. It opens the official download page in a new tab.

I'm not saying that what this site is doing is fine, I'm just saying that this isn't a repost site.

Oh, okay. Thanks. I was unable to verify whether or not it was a reupload site, as I was unwilling to look further, because, as you can imagine, I was unwilling to put my computer at further risk. Thanks for the reply.

@Brandonbr1 https://optifined.net is the official backup site, https://optifined.com is not.

It doesn't uses stolen logo, but when downloading it leads to re-uploaded mod files

The site has changed significantly since the last comment on this post. It used to use the official OptiFine logo.

Re-uploaded mod files

As I said before, I don't support what this site is doing (rather, I'm quite against it), but it's technically not redistributing OptiFine. Those download buttons, when they go to a download for OptiFine at all, go to the official download page. When they don't, they sometimes go to malware, but that malware is not claiming to be OptiFine

I don't know if SMR includes sites like this on the list. If they do, I'm all for having this site added (I didn't make that clear in my previous comments).
