Also, part of the problem is that there's no proper way to submit issues. The only way to tell the dev about an issue seems to be Discord.
...does he not know how to use the issue tracker that comes free with github?
He must've disabled it on purpose as it's on by default on new repos.
Literally the bicycle stick wheel comic.
I think, it was done because everyone kept reporting the same old issues over and over again
Sounds like the dev is simply a neurdodivergent narcissist.
Or, maybe they don't have enough contributors to manage all the issues coming in
Damn, if only there was a way to allow your source code to be forked and allow other devs opportunities to help contribute code. /s
I don't know if you missed the comment referring to it, but the dev deliberately changed the license to his source code to prevent forks, so I was being sarcastic, and the dev is indeed being a stupid dipshit suffering from the consequences of their own actions.
The licence is a creative commons licence and hasn't been changed in 11 months.
I'm not sure what you're talking about
You tell us.
Looks like you can't distribute a modified version of the project (e.g. a fork), but it wouldn't stop anyone contributing to or distributing a separate project that users could run locally to patch duckstation's build process where they can now build it on and for their own machines.
A build patch wouldn't contain any copyrighted material, so anyone could contribute and distribute it.
Ironic considering that's how many emulator get around legal issues. Emulators distribute virtual machines, but they don't distribute the copyrighted material.
Well, that's tough then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
