Remove Mambaforge download links
On the download site, the first download links the user sees are Mambaforge download links. However, Mambaforge is deprecated, so the Mambaforge download links should be removed or made less visible. Additionally, since conda-forge's pypy support is deprecated, the Miniforge-pypy3 download links should also be made less visible. If we keep those download links on the page, we should add a note that they are deprecated. Perhaps they could be hidden under a collapsible element like the download links for older versions are.
It might be better just to put a copy of the README onto the website.
hmm a PR to deprioritize them would be good.
I don't even know how you go there.
I can only get to https://conda-forge.org/download/
Nor do i know where the source is.
I believe the source should be in the gh-pages branch of this repo. The releases webpage is the second search result on Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, and Brave search engines.
Yeah.... ok as a first step. i tried to point people to the right direction.
I meant that the download page hosted at https://conda-forge.org/miniforge/ is the second search result.
i understand, but i'm just letting you know:
- I acknowledge the pain point.
- I personally am unsure how to fix this.
- I added a step in the right direction.
I believe this file contains the source for the download page: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/blob/gh-pages/index.html. However, it seems to be generated by a GH Actions workflow.
I believe it is the "Build docs" action that causes this. This workflow uses the release.py script, so modifying that script and re-running the action should fix this.
At minimum, we can modify the all-releases.html page to have a link to the README and a note that PyPy3 and Mambaforge installers are deprecated.
That sounds like a good improvement!
A PR would be appreciate.
We could also pull in maybe the release description?
I might work on this later, then. I've got quite a lot to do now.
