Overview
* '''System requirements''': At least a Snapdragon 845 or equivalent. Mali and PowerVR GPUs are limited by the lack of dual-source blending in their Android drivers, and will perform worse than Adreno GPUs.<ref>Tahlreth. [https://aethersx2.com AetherSX2 FAQ]. ''§ What are the requirements?''</ref>
Tahlreth suspended development and bowed out from the emulation scene altogether in January 2023, citing the unacceptable behaviour of multiple people towards himself. <ref>Tahlreth. [https://aethersx2.com Page Unavailable]. ''§ AetherSX2 development is indefinitely suspended.''</ref> In later revisions of Aethersx2 after version 13930-v1.5-3668, Tahlreth would add ads and software trackers to the app. A number of fans have either archived old APK versions, or in the case of one hacker, came up with a reverse-engineered build based on a very old LGPL source code release. There also exists a patch for the latest alpha release called NetherSX2 which also removes advertising and introduces quality-of-life improvements over the original emulator. Due to licensing concerns NetherSX2 only comes in an .sh script rather than as a full APK, similar to the ReVanced project for the YouTube client on Android.
