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.
