The Wii homebrew channel has ceased development. A developer accuses other people in the community of stealing code from Nintendo and other projects.

"The Wii homebrew community was all built on top of a pile of lies and copyright infringement"

Now that The Homebrew Channel repo has been archived because of this, no one will ever be able to close the only open issue by answering the question what were the fonts used in the HackMii installer... 😔

The last Homebrew Channel update was close to 9 years ago. The fuck you mean "ceased development"? That basically already happened, right? And people have said the stolen SDK code for the library was first mentioned back in like 2009?

Why bring it up now? Why not 15 years ago? None of this adds up.

it's at least confirmed that libnds[1] and libogc[2] are tainted. further investigation needs to be done into others

To answer your first question: kinda? The most recent changes were 2 weeks ago. However, one of those changes was submitted for consideration in 2022, and only accepted recently.
