Homebrew [No Longer Working] Community freeShop fork - open source eShop alternative

[Lacius]

Does arc's update to this one automagically?

No, but arc13 could easily put out an update that causes everyone to auto-update to Paul's fork.

This gives me anxiety because of the dev who is forking it..

What about him?

 

[DocKlokMan]

It's cool Not super important since every regular member knows who I am, but might be confusing to the 2 people unfamiliar with my history.

I actually had no idea you went through a username change :/

What about him?

Because Paul was the one that made Unbanmii.

 

[proflayton123]

As long as its essentially open source and no malware is going to strike me im cool

Could be an issue though if it looks all fine and dandy and then he adds some malware and releases it, and everybody gets autoupdated to the malware version (instead of having to read about it, and decide if they want to update).

Did unbanmii have malware?

In one or maybe two of the releases yes iirc but lets not bring up old drama

oh look what I just did

 

[DocKlokMan]

Did unbanmii have malware?

Not quite, it uploaded personally identifiable console data to a web server for verification purposes and this was not clearly communicated as to why and with the app being closed source and this being found out through reverse engineering it quickly got a negative reaction and distrust.

Let the old drama rest.

Like my grandma at 54.

Harvesting friend code seeds is a bit more than just collecting data for verification.

This is gonna blow up in our faces...

 

[proflayton123]

People can't help there paranoia due to the dev whom is forking it behind it though, with related things happening. Although, I guess use at your own risk after all.

That's based on whether the dev actually intended for his previous software to be malware. P sure he didn't. Time will tell.

Anybody know why arc stopped?

Because community is toxic.

Edit:
Plus, the 3ds line is dying, and people are moving on.
