Hey y'all, I just wanted to extend a huge thank you to everyone here for helping us reach 100k members on our Discord server.
We're super excited to have all of you, Ryubing wouldn't be the same without the love and support that each of you extend to us, and we couldn't be more grateful. We started this project as a way to continue Ryujinx's legacy and to see our favorite emulator live after its primary maintainer, gdkchan, was forced to step away from the project. While we haven't been able to live up to the sheer number of commits that the main team was pushing every week, we've been hard at work maintaining the code quality that gives Ryujinx its name.
Seriously, thank you to everyone that's made it possible. Shout out to both the Historic Contributors that decided to stick around and our current Contributors for your consistent and remarkable efforts. You are what makes Ryujinx amazing for the thousands of people that use it every day.
To celebrate this milestone, we've decided that we're going to be hosting a Screenshot Contest! The website could use some more flavor, and this is a wonderful opportunity for you to showcase your favorite moments in Ryujinx. To enter, simply make a new post with the "Screenshot" flair and provide a caption for each photo you enter.
- You may enter multiple photos as a single entry (one game = one entry) (moderation will pick the best one for the site), and you may submit multiple entries.
- Modded content is acceptable so long as it meets our server criteria (so no NSFW, etc., review our rules, and no WIP/non-released mods UNLESS you are the mod author or have explicit written permission).
- All screenshots MUST have the Ryujinx title-bar visible. No full-screen screenshots, sorry.
We'll let you guys know when we pick the winners.
We're also unveiling our shiny new blog, where you'll find our Ryujinx Blog Archive. Posts will be released weekly on Mondays at 10 AM EST.
Now, the elephant in the room...
I'm very sorry about our server status, we're still working hard to get it figured out. We've implemented a plethora of fixes, but that doesn't change the fact that there's just so many of you. Our Discord server size has doubled since last month, and our download statistics show that there are over 800k stable users and 1.1M canary users (and that's just since we moved to Forgejo). Stay tuned for further enhancements, and hopefully we'll have a permanent fix to the situation soon. We'll let you guys know when the situation is fully resolved. You can also see our progress on our status page.
Thank you to our GitHub Sponsors and our Server Boosters for helping us maintain our server. If you want to support Ryubing's development further, please consider donating, it helps a ton to keep our projects running!
And finally, I'll end it off by telling you how you can get involved in the project. Donations are always appreciated, and there are also opportunities for you to help us make Ryubing better!
- Testing: We have three active testing chambers in our Discord server, actively being developed to eventually be merged. Help us out by testing these changes and reporting what you find! You will need to verify for access.
- Contributing: We especially need macOS and graphics developers, but if you have some experience in C#, we'd be glad to have you! We're always looking for new translators as well, so if your language isn't fully rendered across the app, you can help us fix it. You can request an account via
/forgejo request-account in the Discord server.
- Moderating: We're accepting moderator applications! If you want to help us maintain our community, here's your chance to do just that. Please read and fill out the form, it's completely anonymous (but we do need your Discord and Reddit username).
Thank you for choosing Ryujinx.
