why are ppl so quick to judge?
"they stole tinfoil code" (where's your proof?) (also it install dlc and updates, Tinfoil can't do that yet, so idk what ur smoking)
"they're playing catch up" (so what? recently they're software got decrypted and was about to be cracked, they have the right to hold off on releasing the next version, your not the fk boss)
"they're making money" (and? updates are for their paying customers, there's free alternatives, use that if your so triggered by ppl trying to make a living to feed their family)
They aren't quick to judge bro.
Its preconceptions that TX hates the community and does more harm than good apparently.
They are the next "gateway", whatever that means.Burned once hey...
Now I was not around in the 3DS scene,so I don't know what happened.What I do know is I paid for a product that's pretty much delivering on my expectations.Even if it was abandoned right now,it still does the job it said it would do.Closed source or not
As others have mentioned, we steal from Nintendo by pirating,some pirates just want transparency when it comes to this theft. Let's call it homebrew,and say we hate piracy,it will make us feel much better.
The beloved emulators that the HB community loves are mostly stolen games not so?
Yes there are legitimate cases like those that only ever backup games they own.and copy save files of games they own.and play on emulators of systems of games they own...but realistically, these people are few and far between.more the exception than the rule.
Lastly,I feel its the principal of the matter.
Stolen code = So bad you shouldn't consider it. I wish TX would credit devs,it gives them one less thing to moan about.
The crux of the matter is simplicity.
There are free alternatives to the product.nobody is forcing anyone else to use it.You really have to ask yourself,how much is your time worth.
People get shunned when they don't understand concepts, laughed at and made fun of by the very community that loves open source.Yet when they ask for help, 2/10 people provide helpful replies while the rest make jokes or direct the person to google.
In this regard,is your time so valuable to you,you'd rather spend 5 hours learning a process to only have to change it tomorrow, where TX says "here's what you can do in 2 minutes,just pay us for the privilege"
Edit : F-it that's a long post.
TL;DR - TX bundles all developments into an "AIO package" you pay the privilege to use.Open source is available if you have the time and patience and don't mind dealing with a whole lot of different guides
And for the record,I love reading guides.I have a lot of time at the moment so gaining knowledge is pretty beneficial, but I support TX too
