I’ve never run into a program that manages to disregard as many UX best practices as Jdownloader. It has more maddening features than I can count. Even stuff like sorting a column by date doesn’t work how you would want it to, because it applies some “package grouping”. It’s the epitome of nonsensical defaults, features that maybe 1% of the user base would want and care about but toggled on by default.

Phew!

What's new? Hasn't JDownloader already served malware with the default installer for years, you had to use specific adware-free installers to avoid it?
