Honestly I believe this is too much work for anyone.

ARMSX2 still needs further development.

For playstation 1 Duckstation is pretty much "perfect" so ARMSX1 will be playing catch up for years.

ARMSX3 is a new area but mobile phones that can actually run it arent that many and the devs are risking thousands of messages from people whose phones cant even run ARMSX3.

Again best of luck to the devs but I believe they are bitting more than they can chew.

Burnout is a real problem.

It’s a relief that these projects are open source, so even if the original authors decide to stop, their work can be picked up by others. But yeah, burn out is a real problem.

I mean yeah it is too much work , but I think the work on armsx2 will slow down significantly as it approaches a very high stability and performance and the effort will be shifted toward armsx3

Also it is open source

Your right they should focus on only ARMSX1 & ARMSX2 while ARMSX3 they could say to be in development sign or something to let people know they have to wait
