Well, for one thing, I never said it was a positive. I didn’t use that word, nor did I even imply it.
You are saying it’s going to have the opposite effect of what Nintendo wants (curtailing emulation), so your claim is that this is going to make emulation more widespread. Correct me if I misunderstood.
Look at LibreOffice.
I never disagreed that a fork can end up good. I said Yuzu shutting down won’t help emulation.
This statement literally proves my point. The binaries still exist in some repos, like the Arch extras repo.
Your claim was that this is “increased awareness to the average person”. How are you mixing “average person” and “Arch extras repo”? The average person uses Windows, Googles “yuzu” and doesn’t find anything clear. This was my point, it brought awareness to me and I saw myself that Yuzu is no longer accessible to the average person.
Please explain how Nintendo is worse off now if that’s really what you think. All your arguments boil down to “this means nothing in the long term, emulation is going to be fine”, which I agree with. I still don’t see how this is having “the opposite effect” though.

You’re intentionally conflating two separate points I made.
Point #1: the fact that you went out of your way as a result of the lawsuit news to download and try Yuzu proves my point that more people will try it out.
Point #2: the binaries are still available in some of the usual places. For example, it’s still available in the Arch repos.
Those two concepts aren’t directly linked together. And I decided to check out the Suyu progress and they’re making much more than just README and branding changes. They’ll have binaries available soon also.
And like I keep saying, Yuzu wasn’t the only Switch emulator out there. So even if people can’t find Yuzu, they can find the other one which is very much active and available to use. It’s called Ryujinx, btw. It’s a terrible name, but it works.
Yes I’m conflating them to illustrate my point. You are right in that it will increase the amount of people wanting to try it. My point is that these people won’t be able to get it running, if, for example, it involves Arch repos which are far beyond the reach of the average person. So the additional awareness might go nowhere.
You say Suyu will have stuff soon, and that there are alternatives. Yes that’s correct, which to me means “emulation is not dead yet, there are still alternatives”, which doesn’t seem like “the opposite effect” at all.
