     It's a PS1 emulator.
     Dude went nuts after someone forked his emulator to run a simpsons bowling game

     @Ronnie21093 faggot probably went open source so others would help him with his code but he gets all the credit.
     
     Emulation scene has many egotistical psychos like that sadly :reimu_sigh:

     @Meemoo Bruh. If he didn't want people to fork it in the first place, he shouldn't have made it open source. :kekw:

     @Meemoo Wait duckstation's creator had a sperg fit? Fuck man, it's actually a really good modern PS1 emulator. Why even get mad over the main benefit of open source anyways?

     @Ronnie21093 worst part is that his project was made with stolen code to begin with so even if all the contributors miraculously agreed he still can't relicense without breaking GPL

     @Ronnie21093 unless I'm mistaken, his emulator is a fork of mednafen

     @Meemoo Did a bit of digging, the people who made the fork were Arcade1UP who did it for commercial purposes without releasing the modified code at first. They had to be harassed to release it since that is part of the license for the emulator. Doesn't explain exactly why the sperg fit was needed, just fight Arcade1UP on it.

     @Meemoo well, if he closes it guess what, people will hard fork the emulator to keep using it.
