In sad news for the hombrew and emulator communities across multiple scenes and platforms, I regret to inform our readers that several days ago Libretro/RetroArch was the victim of a targeted hacker attack.
While it seems the end-users are safe from the damage (no cores or installations should be considered dangerous), the same cannot be currently said about the work of the development team behind the great all-on-one emulator we have come to know and love.
A sizeable amount of Libretro/RetroArch repositories have been wiped clean, and the development team is working hard to see if Github will be able to help them restore the lost data.
The nightly and stable buildbot services have also been crippled, and end-users are not longer able to update or downloads cores, assets, overlays and shaders.
The netplay lobby service is also currently not working.
