Comment on Duckstation(one of the most popular PS1 Emulators) dev plans on eventually dropping Linux support due to Linux users, especially Arch Linux users.

  He’s a total baby. He gives off big 2000s Windows only user energy

    This is the type of shit that makes devs not want to support Linux. Respect volunteers.

      I’m sure that’s it.

      I’ll continue to not use software from mewling babies who blame others because they can’t control their own boundaries.

    Oh yeah, this guy works for free and doesn’t like getting reports for things that are beyond his control, this guy is a huge baby, fuck him for working for free!

    You’re not paying his salary, he doesn’t owe you shit. No liability and all that.

    People like you are why open source developers quit. They don’t get paid for this, and when it’s no longer pleasant, they stop doing work.

      He could, you know… Ignore reports like that instead of dropping support entirely out of spite.

        Well, yes, but triage is work.

        I don’t disagree that this could be handled better, but it’s his decision if he no longer feels like Linux is worth supporting.

        I don’t know if he gets harassed for ignoring reports from downstream builds or what, but I know this was a problem for Bottles and OBS where users became very irate and rude in the bug reports because the downstream version was broken.

        There’s zero responsibility or liability on open source work. Specifically, this is licensed as CC BY-NC-ND 4.0, which has the following clauses:

        Section 5 – Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.

        Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the extent possible, the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and as-available, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the Licensed Material, whether express, implied, statutory, or other. This includes, without limitation, warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence of errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not apply to You. To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of this Public License or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this limitation may not apply to You. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability.

        Bref, the developer doesn’t owe anyone anything beyond what is stated in the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license, the GitHub TOS and the local laws where the developer lives.
