By the time this post was made, it's been done countless times โ€” and even shared as such, for that matter. ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Yep even as soon as the lawsuit was announced people were archiving everything. The only question is who with the requisite skills will be brave enough to lead further development and field PRs and triage issues, beyond just hosting a mirror frozen in time - and will not accepting money be enough for the next maintainers or will other emulators that don't accept money also be in the cross hairs eventually, necessitating developing a future yuzu fork anonymously and using censorship resistant code hosting (be it using a forge hosted in a specific country or something more serious like hosting the code using radicle)

They can accept money and just do it anonymously. Get paid with crypto or something. It's probably still possible to get paid with non crypto and stay moderately anonymous, but probs more risky.

I hope you're right. The more people will save it, the more chances we have to find the source code later, or even find the community who will maintain the fork.

-- A wild Codeberg appeared. --

Codeberg is a collaboration platform providing Git hosting and services for free and open source software, content and projects.

Website: Codeberg.org


The organization selected the European Union for their headquarters and computer infrastructure, due to members' concerns that a software project repository hosted in the United States could be removed if a malicious actor made bad faith copyright claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

In June 2022 the Software Freedom Conservancy's "Give Up Github" campaign (in response to the GitHub Copilot licensing controversy) promoted Codeberg as an alternative to GitHub.
