[QUOTE="Gran_Hampa, post: 10013606, member: 534008"] IMHO I don't know what happened if they harassed people or not, but the app itself works very well in what appears to be the age of emulators that completely forgot to implement the most basic interactions for couch play ( exit button shorcuts, automatic fullscreen at launch, etc). Most modern emus are roughly coded to work but in the end, they are very unpractical from a real world use standpoint. Playing on couch? you have to get to the keyboard to exit. Playing on bed? have to go to pc to exit and load another rom, switch to fullscreen (on some emus). Retroarch, like it or not, solved these issues by making the setup process very easy (looking at you, mame) and giving the overlay the power to close emulation and exit to desktop easily, change controls, navigate all with the gamepad... it feels more polished than the window of an emu in your desktop that you have to control with your keyboard or mouse. They targeted what others forgotten: ease of use. Sorry, I don't know about the drama, but the app is awesome. 🤷♂️ edit (hate me all you want): PS: Again I don't know the facts but; this smells like cancel culture full throttle. I've been reading at least 5 completely different reasons on why retroarch devs were the worst, from harassing people (don't know exactly how they feel so touched because everyone is a ***khead in all social networks) to the comment above claiming there's even a suicide (and somehow retroarch is being accussed). The only reason that I've seen more than twice is that mame got mad at them, and even then, the reason of why varies from comment to comment. Too many reasons, too many histories... smells fishy. It all seems to end in the classic open source community extremism realm that I was suspecting. [/QUOTE]
