That’s exactly why they’re changing the license. The problem with Swanstation are the developers. Retroarch in general has some pretty horrible people maintaining it and this isn’t the first time they’ve harassed an emulator dev over nothing.
And “it is already out there so they can’t take it away”:
swanstation is already a few versions back feature wise? But, regardless, it will rapidly become outdated as new “tech” is added to emulation and issues are found with third party libraries or code. Good software needs good support and just having a ten year old hash is almost always worse than useless.
What’s the problem with SwanStation? Forks are perfectly okay and normal with the GPL, that’s the fucking point of the GPL.
