minus-squaredontbelievethis@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down3·2 days agoSupporting something just means using something now. People buy something they want, use it, enjoy it and then think that is support. It is ridiculous. People knighting themselfs for being leech-consumers.
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·2 days agoExactly. I really don’t understand this whole mentality. If I supported this project, I’d either be donating money, code, or tech support time. Using something isn’t “supporting” it, it’s just using it.

minus-squareAnimalsDream@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2 days agoIf you care about RetroAchievement support, this is what they support. Beetle is the RetroArch core that’s most often recommended. If you don’t like RA (they have serious issues of their own), the Beetle core comes from the emulator Mednafen. And the other main open-source option is PCSXR.
minus-squarezarkanian@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 days agoMednafen is pretty great. MAME also has PSX emulation. It’s marked as not working, but I’ve heard it’s actually pretty good, and I got good results on the few games I tried.
