I grew up in the era where open-source was just starting out and creators were giving ๐ to big tech and naming their products wacky names.
This reminds me of that era.
Suyu, a fork of the Yuzu emulator which was taken down by Nintendo, is an excellent example.
Nintendo are fucking clowns and so are JP IP laws. Fuck 'em both.
You mean the one that was just recently...taken down?
Yeah, didn't last as long as I'd hoped it would.
Only the repo on GitLab was taken down, in response, they just created their own Forgejo instance. They also have their own website: https://suyu.dev/
Just give it a few more days before their Forejo and website are taken down. I honestly didn't think they could be more aggressive than they already are, but recently they've proved me dead wrong.
It's self hosted in $godknowswhere, so it's unlikely
Only the gitlab project was taken down. They moved.
