Same, pcsx2 running yakuza. Started playing it and found trouble. Searched and couldn't believe someone not only had that problem but fixed it themselves!
That person was me. I devolved in the time between. I didn't even know until I went to thank the person and the system told me that email was in use.
I have a similar experience where I searched for an issue I'd never been able to fix hoping that with people using the software for years now that someone figured it out. I found one search result with someone detailing the exact same issue. It was me, like 5 years ago....and still no one had been able to answer.
I have actually gone back and posted some comments starting with "Dear people from the future..." on some issues after I figured it out because of this comic. I wonder if anyone has ever seen those and got the joke.
Until I find the Reddit post with the comment that has the reply “thanks bro” and the parent comment says “this comment was mass edited with redact.dev”

Occasionally you’ll find a true angel of a post who, unprompted, provides the answer just in case someone might need it in the future.

The even worse feeling is when there is a reply below with "" and a reply below that with "thank you so much, that fixed it!"

Huh, I never knew there was a mobile version of the site.
