There’s still time!!! Get Yuzu and Citra on Flathub now if you don’t already have it!!!
https://flathub.org/apps/org.citra_emu.citra
https://flathub.org/apps/org.yuzu_emu.yuzu
Edit: Just a note: Yuzu’s latest build is mainline-0-1734. The latest build of Yuzu on Flathub is mainline-0-1733.
Edit#2: As a commenter on this post mentioned: Flathub has now been updated for the latest build of Yuzu -> mainline-0-1734
Also: Thank you @Krafting@lemmy.world for providing a link to a post that consults preserving/forking Yuzu’s codebase.

Edit#3: Yuzu and Citra have now been removed from the Flathub website, but are however still available via their flatpak commands:
flatpak install flathub org.yuzu_emu.yuzu
flatpak install flathub org.citra_emu.citra
For more context, A Flathub admin responded to someone on the Flathub Matrix channel saying that Yuzu won’t be removed from Flathub completely until they “understand legal implications better”

Thank you to ObjectiveJellyfish36 for providing the image and information about the Flathub Admin’s response.

Preserve the codebase also!
THANK YOU!!

Don’t forget this is a thing aswell.
Would make more sense to be cloning Ryuijunx repository since its fully open source. Yuzu had some closed source code, so its less easily fully preserved.
Huh, always thought it was the other way around that Yuzu was fully open sourced. TIL
Could be the early access stuff that’s closed
The repo could be shut down/removed, so Having copies is always a good thing. I think I read earlier that the yuzu source had already made it’s way into the wild?
Yuzu pineapple has the latest 4176 early access src https://github.com/pineappleEA/pineapple-src
git cloned it today just in case.
Flathub’s build is now 1734 (the latest) - just updated it
I downloaded the Yuzu flatpak onto a USB stick and I’ll send a zip of it with install instructions if anyone wants it.
Or, you know, their website…
Ah nvm, I see their github has been taken down.
That 404’s on the download link.
GitHub is gone, can’t download it on windows or android
Their website, which tells you to download it from Flathub?
They also have a tar.xz file for Yuzu.
My bad. That’s correct. I rushed to get this post out ASAP, i’ll edit it in. Thanks!!
I’ve made local copies of the code base and executables for both emus. Just in case.
Not that I think it’s needed per se. Projects were open source, and while the devs are barred from continuing application development… It’s a matter of time before the dust settles and some nerds pick up the code base and work on it
(for now any forks are just copy pastes made by randos, but that’s now)
Will Citra also disappear?
The team behind Yuzu was also the team behind Citra so unfortunately Citra is gone as well. But Citra has also been forked so source code is still available.
Good thing flathub still has them. Download the flatpaks while they last.
does anyone have a fork of citra and the apps they can post? i see yuzu not citra
For me what is most ironic is I probably would’ve never went out of my way to start downloading some emulators and ROMs until hearing about all these kerfuffles
I’ve got a DL link I was provided with a build from 02/27 and some tools. PM me and I’ll share privately. <3
Thankfully I downloaded it when the news about the lawsuit started coming.
It’s kinda sweet to see the community scrambling like this to preserve this.
It’s a bit silly and it sure is a lot but it’s sweet. I doubted this software was really going anywhere, install files will keep it alive forever, but man the response time on this has been wild to watch.
