Lots of university file dumps are served on FTP...

I used to add '+"index of"' when searching for files or dumps using google. It still works, but definitely not as good as a few years ago.

A past time: typing '+"index of" main.dfm' to see what people were developing using delphi.

'+"index of" dire straits sultans of swing mp3' still kind of works.

I have tested and still works even with actual and a bit obscure software

I use FileZilla anytime I need to access FTP.

It somehow feels wrong to use a web browser for this.

With no HTTP alternative? Most FTP servers that I saw also had HTTP support.

and a lot more, it's a bit sad to lose ftp

I was at the meeting and they simply preferred to add more people to the tab redesign rather than the FTP code.

Why having <video> why having MIME
