![]() As with ten years ago, I don't think that "handing it over" to the Dolphin Developers (aka you giving it to the Dolphin Foundation and leaving it in our care exclusively) will have a good result - we're busy, and we're not going to do a very good job taking care of it simply because we don't care about it as much as you do. However, in my opinion, the ones that care about the subreddit should be the ones that run it. Maybe the subreddit is small enough that they won't bother you, I don't know. Anything can happen right now, hell you probably know what's going on better than I do, so I can't really give any good advice or anything. ![]() But then reddit could just purge ALL mods and then it wouldn't matter how many mods there are. Which you may still want to do, I don't know. For example, if you are worried they'll remove you and replace you with random mods, you could give a bunch of Dolphin devs moderator permissions as backup. There's no way to plan or predict what's going to happen at this stage. Well, there isn't a clear way forward with reddit in turmoil right now. There's the option of keeping it restricted, but still posting links to Dolphin blog postsĪs and when they appear, but I suspect none will do so until after we're booted. Currently, there's a no-piracy rule that's been well-enforced, so it should be squeaky clean from a litigious-Nintendo standpoint. That's likely to end up with the subreddit in a mess that's a lot less attractive for the Dolphin team to commandeer. If I put it back into private mode (currently it's in restricted mode, so people can see posts, but not respond or post their own, which means the corpus of resolved support threads are still accessible from Google, but in private mode, that wouldn't be the case), then I expect that within a couple of weeks, Reddit staff will remove me as a moderator, and either leave it unmoderated (and therefore locked so no one can post, just as it is now, or assign some random schmuck. If I can hand the subreddit over to the Dolphin team to do as they see fit, that ignores the three quarters of people who didn't want that. So this leaves me with a bunch of users wanting different things. A couple of days ago I ran a poll on whether to continue the protest, and was surprised to find that among the tiny fraction of people who cared enough to vote, reopening as normal was overwhelmingly unpopular. The outcome of that is that Reddit's shown they're hostile to their volunteer moderators, and we really can't be bothered with it any more. Ten years on, it's grown to eighty thousand subscribers (very few of which actually do anything), and me and the other moderator decided to set it to private mode as part of the Reddit API protest. My intention was to hand it over to the Dolphin team, but they weren't keen, so I've remained the most senior moderator. Oh, and I just want to add I'm sorry not to have left something positive too.As I discussed in the Random thread a few days ago, I made the /r/DolphinEmulator subreddit nearly a decade ago after another user here noticed it didn't exist yet. It only goes to help Dolphin development I would also personally recommend to read into this and you'll see it's only a net positive to recommend it to users too. This isn't just my view but that of the developers themselves.Īlso this is optional but I highly recommend reading into the Usage Statistics Reporting all of that data is very limited in scope and not at all used for profit and it cannot be used to track users or anything especially since it's scope is so limited. So I highly recommend against recommending 5.0 stable! Most issues that people complain about or are new to Dolphin is that they are using this outdated buggier version. (I know this is not typically the case with software, but it is Dolphin's current and longstanding way it is for now)īETA is recommended.
