pcem

It's a fork, going back some years (2017 or so). It's instructive to look at the activity level of pcem (their forum, and their github account: https://github.com/sarah-walker-pcem/pcem/commits/dev/) versus 86box ( https://github.com/86Box/86Box/commits/master/ ) 86box has a vibrant community around it (pop in the discord some time!) which PCEM really doesn't as far as I'm able to tell. Yes, there is a lot of bad blood -but I would suggest taking any stories that you hear (but did not witness yourself) with a huge grain of salt.

Submitted a few months ago with a bit of discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27546352 . Most useful is the reference to the following issue, as the project’s forum was removed: https://github.com/sarah-walker-pcem/pcem/issues/32 Past submissions of the domain, including a couple >= 40-comment ones: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... GitHub: https://github.com/sarah-walker-pcem/pcem Unfortunately the program needs ROM files (not supplied) for most (all?) of what it ‘emulates’.

There's some context in a GH issue: https://github.com/sarah-walker-pcem/pcem/issues/32
