After Yuzu got shut down I'm not sure what this leaves people with for switch emulators. I'm going to try and find archives and will update the post when I do.
Last windows build: archive.org
Slightly older, but has linux and mac builds archive.org
Okay there we go, a github mirror: https://git.naxdy.org/Mirror/Ryujinx
I don't think you can make emulators that are as nice as Ryujinx/RPCS3/Dolphin the same way you make cracked Android apps
Well apparently you can't make emulators that are as nice as Ryujinx/RPCS3/Dolphin anymore anyway, so there's your options. Tor is easily capable of handling some git servers and forums. Plus the more people that use Tor and Monero the safer and more anonymous they become.
I know, I'm just saying that sort of environment is going to attract much less developers
The only game in town can become popular pretty fast.
The dynamic would be very different. Emulation development has become seen as a safe and fulfilling hobby and side project for talented developers. If it was treated more akin to cracking Photoshop there'd be way less people lining up to have a go at it
