I'm not sure I see the relevance. Could you explain further, please?

In many ways, sites/tools like sourceforge and github made it much easier to publish and obtain open source software, leading to much more software being created and shared. I'm suggesting that "too much content" isn't a problem, and leads to good things.

Did people feel that way about software?
