Was surprised at this since it's not connected to Nintendo in any way, but it turns out it's not actually related to the Yuzu news:

This doesn't come as a surprise for many, though, as the AetherSX2 emulator halted development entirely back in 2023, with the developer specifically mentioning the "neverending impersonating, complaints, demands, and now death threats". Although, it took almost a year for the actual emulator app to be taken down from the Play Store, following the discontinuation of the project

What kind of sicko sends death threats to someone for developing an emulator

Open source devs have to deal with the most entitled, messed up people, I swear

Especially when the software they're developing is an emulator or for phones. This was both!
