So I didn't follow Switch emulation too much during its prime... and saw enough near the end (blatantly updating code to support pre-release games) that I steered clear.

When the nintendo-ing happened, most "folk in the know" more or less speculated that everything would end for a few years and we would just see a lot of re-builds of the source with either slightly different input libraries or crypto miners.

Well, it has been a few years! Did that come to pass? Is it still a case where my best bet would be to check the commit hash against a known good and build Yuzu myself? Have any reputable-ish groups taken over with a "fork"? Or alternatives arisen?

Thanks.

On Linux, I use Eden is it mostly works. Some games have a few bugs, but it is mostly fine. On my Android phone, the game runs but my Mediatek chip's Mali GPU doesn't have any supported drivers for Eden so I just see a black screen. I can even click on some of the buttons and get some sound, but no visual graphics at all. I believe Qualcomm chips will work much better for this. My Mediatek phone still runs everything up to 3DS fine though.
