Couldn't you have turned off uBlock for that site via the toolbar button?

One doesn't even need to turn off uBlock if one disagrees with the wholesome blocking of sourceforge.net: right in the warning page, uBlock Origin offers the user to remove temporarily or permanently the wholesome blocking for the site.

An OT grammar note: if the sentence doesn't seem clear at first, it's possible "wholesome" should be "wholesale". I think.

Oops, right, I meant "wholesale".
