-- A wild Codeberg appeared. --

Codeberg is a collaboration platform providing Git hosting and services for free and open source software, content and projects.

Website: Codeberg.org


The organization selected the European Union for their headquarters and computer infrastructure, due to members' concerns that a software project repository hosted in the United States could be removed if a malicious actor made bad faith copyright claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

In June 2022 the Software Freedom Conservancy's "Give Up Github" campaign (in response to the GitHub Copilot licensing controversy) promoted Codeberg as an alternative to GitHub.

I agree to never give Nintendo my money again, I hope they also shut down someday.

What happened to the lawsuit that said that emulation is legal?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Probably take a dim view of it when emulating current gen games.

Also they made a ton of money off it.

It is always morally correct to pirate nintendo products.

I'm planning to just Google my way out of this, but what's the cleanest way to block the repo I've been using in yay from updates without uninstalling the version I've got running already?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Are you using the AUR? The package will probably just get orphaned or the upstream will change to a duplicate repo. I don't see Yuzu or Citra going anywhere considering they are open source.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

Yeah pretty sure I installed the experimental branch from the AUR. I just didn't want the repo to be poisoned or something. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks for the info!
