What's the difference between emudeck and retrodeck? I've been using retrodeck and enjoying it quite a lot.
From my experience Retrodeck tends to lose the config files a lot during updates. So far I'm yet to experience that with Emudeck.
EDIT: Apparently it was a bug and it's been fixed almost a year ago, see the dev reply below. Don't let my comment discourage you from choosing RetroDECK!
Greetings, RetroDECK dev here, this was a known issue that was solved on 0.6.2b (15/03/2023), now we are on 0.7.5b and that bug is only a memory. Please let us know if you encounter any issue related to your config if you will decide to try RetroDECK again. Thanks a lot for your patience :)
Oh, that's amazing to hear! I prefer the design of RetroDECK over Emudeck a lot, so I'm more than happy to migrate back then.
