I have been getting into emulation though there is no emulation community here to talk about it. I assume emulation discussion in gaming is welcome any thoughts?

Until archive.org soon will be ceased. Other big ROM sites were forced to close as well… It’s madness!! And we are not doing enough to prevent this. For example: https://www.timeextension.com/news/2024/06/one-of-the-webs-oldest-rom-sites-removes-games-by-nintendo-sega-and-lego

Yeah its a shame. Idk how much “we” can do about corporates misguided copyright craze

we really need to archive archive.org tbh. If there was an open source fediverse alternative that would be great. The hard part would be the amount of storage needed for the whole thing.

We need to leverage existing solutions like how Ana archive is working. Which makes use of torrents. https://annas-archive.org/ Like read this carefully: https://annas-archive.org/datasets
