Is anaconda download page considered dark pattern?
It’s been a while since I last downloaded anaconda. But I remember when clicking on the download page, it would show the usual “choose your OS > download binary” (eg this archived version in 2019).
Recently I helped someone else set it up and it showed a form to put on email, with smaller gray text near the bottom of the form about skipping it.
Does this count as a dark pattern?

That'd be a big NOPE from me.
“NOPE” as in “not a dark pattern” or as in “I’m not touching this site”? if former, can you clarify on the reason?
Sorry, I meant I wouldn't touch it.
gotcha, thanks for clarifying :)
