I had heard that the hypervisor layer of protection for the PS5 was opened up recently, which in the history of PlayStation systems has generally been one of the biggest steps cracking the system for running unsigned code (and thus getting pirated gamss working). But I am not sure if that translates into anything useful for emulation.
Fwiw Linux can be run at full speed with hardware acceleration on PS5 now (specifically Ubuntu and Fedora, and I think you need to use a USB-Ethernet adapter to get internet, but still). Apparently it makes a great Steam Machine
Do you want a thriving emulation scene?
Because that’s how you get a thriving emulation scene.
A true RPCS4 Bloodbourne moment.

Emulators are pretty much inevitable, especially if there’s a decent game library.
