Yuzu and Citra are still available

~~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

~~Just a note: Yuzu’s latest build is mainline-0-1734. The latest build of Yuzu on Flathub is mainline-0-1733.~~

~~Edit: Flathub has now been updated for the latest build of Yuzu -> mainline-0-1734~~

Also: Thanks to a commenter on another one of my posts for providing a link to a different post that consults preserving/forking Yuzu’s codebase.

Edit#2: 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.

Good reminder; got to it as soon as I saw the news, also my raspberry is totally not downloading stuff I legally own right now.
- I struggle to understand why there are a select few people who refer to their Raspberry Pi's as raspberries. They are Pi's, or Raspberry Pi's not raspberries. 🤣
  
  Maybe because the OS was called raspbian in the beginning?
  
  I think it's a cute (nick) name.
You know what's better than grabbing binaries? The source code. Several people have already cloned the repo and someone else will pick up development. There is no reason to panic.
Good idea. Totally forgot that citra was the same dev team.

Doubt I'll be emulating any nintendo stuff lately (too much new stuff coming out) but would like the option for some SMB3DW and the like.
How do we know the well isn't poisoned? Last update was 9 hours ago.
- The beautiful thing about git is it could be rolled back to previous versions. Everything is cryptographically signed to each developer. As long as someone has the repo cloned locally, which we know several people do, everything can be restored.
  
  Yes. Which reinforced the need to not trust binary releases, like these Flathhub ones, as they don't have such assurances.
Whoa, wait, Citra's getting hit too?
- The Citra team is the same team behind Yuzu, so yes they are both gone. It's a sad day today.
  
  Don't be too sad, this is open source after all.
I already have it. A switch isn't worth buying for 1 or 2 games . If I could of bought the couple of switch games I wanted to try on steam I would I got them . I think Nintendo should give up on consoles but I know they will never do that.
- I feel linke Nintendo just has a Bad approach beacause i Quote linke the new Nintendo 3ds and switch lite they arent perfect but they are Quote nice for their pricepoint Ehen jailbroken
Is there a way to keep an installer package of a Flatpak for (re)installing it when it's unavailable on Flathub?
- flatpak create-usb /path/to/save/data org.yuzu_emu.yuza
  
  See https://linuxconfig.org/flatpak-offline-repository-usage for details.
  
  Awesome, thanks!
- This is what I want to know
- https://git.nadeko.net/NINTENSHIT/flathub_org.yuzu_emu.yuzu
  
  Manifest + Offline installer in releases.
  
  EDIT: I will upload the .ostree later
- Yes - just go to https://flathub.org/apps/org.yuzu_emu.yuzu, then click on "Install", and you will download "org.yuzu_emu.yuzu.flatpakref".
For what its worth, while its not viewable on the Flathub website anymore, it can still (at the time of my writing) still be downloaded/installed through the flatpak command.
- I've let them know so that it can be removed. Thanks team.
aaaaand it's gone
Wish I had a computer right now. 😔
