Flycast has pulled support for iOS after persistent threats from a single user.
- Dreamcast emulator Flycast’s iOS build has been pulled due to persistent harassment of its developer.
- A Reddit post includes Discord messages referencing death threats and repeated bans.
- The harassment appears to have been from one individual.
It’s always frustrating when one person ruins something for everyone else. In this case, a popular Dreamcast emulator for iOS appears to have been pulled following sustained harassment of one of its developers by a single individual.
In a post shared to the r/EmulationOniOS subreddit, a user shared what appears to be a screenshot from Discord showing a message from Flycast developer flyinghead. The message reads: “Due to persistent harassment from an iOS user, support for this platform has been dropped and all release builds deleted.” Almost the same message appears on the project’s GitHub page under the iOS installation instructions.
