gdkchan primarily develops on Windows, but they did use Linux for a while when improving the GPU performance of the emulator, due to better Intel driver support.it was relatively easy to package Ryujinx as a Flatpak, but more difficult to get it to conform to Flathub’s standards.some AMD-specific fixes were added to the Linux version of the emulator thanks to one of the devs owning a Deck.
the Vulkan backend has mostly been met with very positive reception, albeit for NVIDIA users on Linux, since there wasn’t much of a performance gain there. Ryujinx should be picked over Yuzu for compatibility and stability purposes. Ryujinx was launched to the public in February 2018 and was the first emulator to successfully emulate commercial titles. Note that this interview contains some minor edits for spelling/grammar fixes. So I wanted to sit down with them again, see what their thoughts are on the Steam Deck, how the reception has been now that Vulkan has been merged into the main branch, and some of the things we can look forward to with this fantastic emulator. It felt like I was immersed in another world as they freely expressed what was on their mind, and in the process, I learned quite a few new things as well. I interviewed them last year over on Boiling Steam, and their answers blew away my mind. And as the founder of the project, GDKChan, brings out in this interview, in some instances it outperforms Yuzu when it comes to stability and compatibility. 
It’s a perfectly capable emulator it can even handle emulation on Deck pretty well in most cases. However, I like to give the more niche projects the spotlight they deserve. After all, Valve themselves showcased Yuzu’s logo on one of their Steam Deck videos, only to quickly take it off after the Internet took the news by storm. But you’re probably more familiar with the latter, as it tends to be the more popular emulator. When you’ve heard or looked up the term “Nintendo Switch emulation,” chances are you’ll come across one of two emulators: Ryujinx, and Yuzu.
