Yep even as soon as the lawsuit was announced people were archiving everything. The only question is who with the requisite skills will be brave enough to lead further development and field PRs and triage issues, beyond just hosting a mirror frozen in time - and will not accepting money be enough for the next maintainers or will other emulators that don't accept money also be in the cross hairs eventually, necessitating developing a future yuzu fork anonymously and using censorship resistant code hosting (be it using a forge hosted in a specific country or something more serious like hosting the code using radicle)

I hope you're right. The more people will save it, the more chances we have to find the source code later, or even find the community who will maintain the fork.
