Please stop trying to shill this. The crypto aspect always made the project look shady, and the massive security oversights really hammer home the fact that this is not a serious project.
What's the difference between this and https://tangled.org? This is the first time I've seen it mentioned, and it sounds like it's trying to a build a similar solution.
Also, why are we basically re-implementing a P2P network for VCS when we already have a really good generic P2P networking system which also has Git support?
Came here to suggest this, happy to see it already suggested.
Looks like there are several backups/forks of Yuzu already shared there. Nice to see!
Why would they self host when they can just keep rehosting them on GitHub or similar for free every few months?
If there is one thing the emulator community is already good at... it's backing things up!
I do not want to hate on them but they did have a pretty massive oversight of ... not checking that any of their traffic was encrypted or authenticated.
I'm not a fan of how they handled this situation.. they failed to verify that the encryption in their software was actually working and then tried to sprinkle sugar on it by calling it a "security vulnerability in the network protocol used by..". It wasn't a vulnerability in the protocol, they just didn't use it properly. If you make a mistake like that, you need to just own it.
