I haven’t really been following this closely anymore, but ryujinx, yuzu and a few of its forks have all stopped development, what still exists?

11 monthsFor Ryujinx there’s Ryubing is the new main fork with new features by GreemDev, Kenji-NX is another fork, more of a middle-ground between new features. Finally Ryujinx Mirror is minor fixes to the last Ryujinx commit (last updated 7 months a go).
Yuzu has Torzu (somewhat infrequent updates) and as the name implies, it has a Tor site. The new recommended kid on the block is Eden which emerged because of drama with Citron. The main Citron dev, Zephyron is a massive corporate cock sucker and has a massive power tripping ego that wanted to implement a legitimacy check for the emulator. You would have to run a homebrew program on your hacked Switch which would upload some dump/file to Citron’s server to verify you are a good boy and be able to use the emulator, and Zeph kicked everyone on his Discord that wasn’t verified and closed invites for a bit. As of now Citron has not had a commit for 1 month.
Do note that GreemDev is (was?) a mod in Citron’s Discord and did participate in the mass kicking/banning and added a blacklist for running the Citron Switch verifier homebrew in Ryubing. His other commits don’t seem to be malicious but a word of caution.
Thanks for the ryubing, I using the minor fixes one without knowing
Yuzu still exists on my computer because I never removed it. 😤

Eden emulator is a fairly new one. I’ve had good luck with it so far 👍
Its funny how each time someone asks this gets the “this new yuzu fork” reply
And that’s somehow bad or just “funny”? Well - if someone’s asking for still existing emulators (which are still in development) then why’d you not mention them? Weird …
Even other emulators got mentioned now. 🤷♂️ (these are yuzu-forks as well it seems - if these are the only ones how should someone find anything non-forked?)

Depending on the game but on my machine I have Sudachi and Kenji-NX depending on the games I play :

Eden (Citron fork) seems great such as Torzu
I don’t know if there are more but this is still there:
- https://github.com/Ryubing (their GitLab instance: https://git.ryujinx.app/ryubing/ryujinx)
Nvm - suyu seems dead now as well: https://chat.suyu.dev/channel/announcements

None that I know of, but those are both abandoned and all the download links for them are very sketchy.

I second using one from a fitgirl repack. They always work right out of the box, and you can easily use the included emulators for other games.

Perhaps grab the latest switch repack from fitgirl and use one of those emulators? At least it wouldn’t be a sketchy site
From what I can see, it has Ryujinx, Citron, Sudachi, and Torzu

🤔 first time I heard of this, thanks for sharing the info

The threads linked there have a warning about Ryubing in the comments, too. Apparently the lead dev has done pretty shady stuff on Discord, but being Reddit, it’s all mixed in with deleted accounts and comments and is pretty hard to follow.

Do any of the forks have devs with credentials ? I mean most just seem to reskin and rewrite the wiki and fade out of existance . Is there anyone that knows what they are doing ? Such as more games being supported etc ?
