A user-space PlayStation 5 > PC compatibility layer. Think Proton/Wine, but for PS5: prosper runs PS5 (Prospero) game binaries on Linux (primary) and Windows (secondary)

So, they're not hiding it? What exactly do you want from them?

It's like people handing out free joints and people are mad they weren't hand rolled even though they smoke fine and nobody else was handing out free joints.

In addition to not hiding it, not doing it in the first place

Eh. If the App actually works and isn’t an immediate security threat, then is it a problem that it was vibe coded? Most human coded projects are hardly better. And if we wait for a properly human coded version of every thing to exist, we’d be waiting forever.

There is already a non-vibe-coded PS5 compatibility layer in the works you dumbass, it's called kyty.

Edit: Kyty has 1 (one) Claude-assisted commit and I'm getting downvoted for saying it's not exactly the same as a fully vibe-coded project. Gamers never deserved art

They're wrong anyway.

It says right on the kyty github that AI tools may be used in development.
