Duckstation(one of the most popular PS1 Emulators) dev plans on eventually dropping Linux support due to Linux users, especially Arch Linux users.

Slap those genitals in a flake and get those dinner reservations ready!
Nixos can be whatever your imagination wants it to be!
Not far off base lol. As long as it compiles on whoever's machine decides to repackage the application, it'll run on everyone's.
Most updates its usually just a matter of updating a key.
Its not that hard to make a wrapper for a program designed for hard-linked paths.

As a Linux user, I disagree. It's his time and investment. Sometimes you gotta make difficult choices and when users complain about stuff that's unrelated, it's a mess for a dev to deal with. And Linux users are loud
He's a total baby. He gives off big 2000s Windows only user energy

This is the type of shit that makes devs not want to support Linux. Respect volunteers.

As someone who used to use arch for years, I can't stand its users who go around acting like running it is some herculean task that takes serious knowledge.
In reality its not much more than a misbehaved pet that requires constant attention and a blog post to be read every month or so. Not because its hard, but because its updates are just kinda slapped together and tossed out in the name of speed.
One of the biggest indicators of this is the AUR. For what it was worth, the Gentoo crowd it replaced at least knew how to compile a program.
Maybe learn to use git, tar, and make like literally anyone else on any other fucking distro.
I feel like I'd need to check the wiki less if pacman had flags that made more sense lol. Plus so many variations of commands the wiki warns "this will break your shit".
I really like Arch, I'm using CachyOS, it's been great. But I do miss apt lol. Maybe that's just because I was used to it though. Update and upgrade being two totally different things is also extremely counterintuitive.

Arch linux. Hmm. Could it be because of the users? Lately arch linux has become the most popular distro for people trying linux for the first time. Are they all congregating on duckstation's github to cry about it?

I'm sure that's it.
I'll continue to not use software from mewling babies who blame others because they can't control their own boundaries.

Why is it terrible? Appimages are fine.
Appinages are fine. Needing to apply changes as patchsets rather than just building normally sucks. Especially in deb and rpm distros.

Are you smoking crack right now? You sound like you are hopped up on something.

Oh yeah, this guy works for free and doesn't like getting reports for things that are beyond his control, this guy is a huge baby, fuck him for working for free!
You're not paying his salary, he doesn't owe you shit. No liability and all that.
People like you are why open source developers quit. They don't get paid for this, and when it's no longer pleasant, they stop doing work.

Lmao yeah, big projection energy coming from that user.

Year of the Linux desktop pushed out a year due to Linux infighting and intolerable advocates for the 33rd year. Clearly the fault of the other distros as I use Arch.

Just you guys who can't help but white knight this guy XD

Not really applicable, but you do you, Holmes XD

LoL Jesus Christ, you kids are not alright. XD complete lack of understanding of personal responsibility.

Well yes and no you can release them going forward under a new licence. If you obtained your copy under the old license you can use it under the old license when you obtain a new copy you have a new license agreement. Thats absolutly possible to do.
Revoking licenses is alot harder though and changing the lizens from a foss on to another is often confusing and business inapropiate. However it is legal.Assuming newer versions are derived from code that was licensed GPL in the old version, the newer versions (which include new code) are also licensed GPL, whether the person writing the new code likes it or not.

Just because it’s open source
It's not open source. The maintainer relicensed the project from GPL to the current source-available license last year.
The AUR package uses the last GPL release before the change and thus does the current license does not apply.
It is still open source. The attempt at relicensing isn't legally valid. The consent of earlier contributors was not obtained.

I use the Duckstation flatpak funny enough
No, you are harassing and bullying poor Stenzek.
Typical Linux user, using Linux and stuff.

Why should he get a say on how someone else installs the software on their own systems?
If I want to build an arch package instead, what business is that of his?
It's open source, the package the developer chooses to distribute doesn't affect your ability to create whatever kind of package for your own system you want.
