No. First of all the only semi publicly leaked SDK from June 2017, is a pre release SDK from 2016. A lot of things have changed since then, I have looked at the documentation it is very out of date. Secondly it is completely illegal to do so, not only does it break the NDA developers sign with Nintendo when signing up for the Nintendo Developer program, but it is considered a "trade secret".

Any developer who uses anything from the SDK in their toolchains will get legal trouble from Nintendo.

There are developers working on porting nouveau, Nvidias open source driver to Switch, but it takes time, so patience is key.

Doesn’t hw acceleration already work in Linux? There shouldn’t be anything stopping us from doing so already.

It does, but we don't have Vulkan yet and I'm not sure what drivers they are using, they might be inferior.

No. Atmosphere does not use any of Nintendo's proprietary property. The point of CFW is to reimplement Nintendo's code, not use it. If Atmosphere was a 1:1 of Horizon with patches it would be taken down.

SX OS however is closed source so it is impossible to know what they used. That is most likely also why CEMU is closed source, there are several things that point to them having used leaked stuff.

I say we do like the old days with the first xbox and just release all the code written with the official sdk on something like xbins and do it anonymously. Same with the 360 too. Almost all the good stuff was written with the official sdk. Oh and the ps3 aswell.;)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
