I’m sure most of you here have heard about Cemu’s woes over the last few days. The AppImage and Ubuntu zip assets of Cemu 2.6 on the official GitHub was “compromised by a pro-Russian threat actor”.
Clearly this news isn’t good at all, even if it is a smaller batch who might be affected, but the interesting point to me is how RetroDECK has remained separate from this issue because of how it is run:
Hilariously I switch from EmuDeck to RetroDeck a while ago, solely because I really like its uh, ESDE theme or whatever that is.
Now I can tug on my suspenders and pretend this actually an extremely prescient security/architecure based opinion/decision, lol.
Honestly the only reason I’ve clung to Emudeck instead of Retrodeck is because it seems so heavily based on ES-DE which I don’t want to use whatsoever. Even their SRM support seems to require favoriting games in ES-DE.
Is there something wrong with ES-DE?
It’s not my preferred front end. I have also avoided it because of es-de
Not particularly, it works great for what it does, but I much prefer the SRM approach.

Retrodeck acts like Debian and that’s good sometimes is what this is saying
