the best part of being an emulator developer is being asked the same questions over and over again from people who can't read

this gets a lot worse if you support Android for some reason

making it difficult to get in contact with me was a deliberate strategy to avoid me getting burned out on emulator development too quickly, and it worked. i recommend it. there's something to be said for barriers to entry. i don't like gatekeeping generally but my time isn't free

‪btw you could actually cancel me over getting annoyed at Android users, because the reasons they're annoying are ultimately related to the fact Android is the OS of the masses: non-computer people use it, kids use it, and it's overwhelmingly popular in low-income countries‬

‪but uh android sucks and i don't owe users anything, that's the truth‬

@hikari
nothing, not even
- not knowingly shipping malicious or grossly vulnerable software?
- communicating in good faith?

@whitequark truth be told i do believe i owe my users those things, but they're such a low bar to me that i don't actually think about it

@hikari yep. I'm the same. I think there's a useful discussion to be had about handling this exact problem
