We lost Yuzu because of a Windows 7 user. Whoever that guy was, he deserved this.
how?
He got upset at the Yuzu developers for dropping support for Windows 7, and after throwing a tantrum in a GitHub Issue report, he directly emailed Nintendo and their legal team with a massive word salad directly linking to Yuzu. Multiple times. Then within around a month or two Nintendo initiated a lawsuit.
Fuck them then, it's even worse when you think of the multiple ways you can update or switch to a Linux distro
