Overview

Sync saves to GDrive or other free services.

Smaller details

Either have a specific directory in the root of GDrive so you just have to connect in the GUI, and/or add a directory setting for it.
Saves could be simple encrypted zip files with an obfuscated name to prevent bot detection. Add a way to import/export saves as zip files. RyuJinx should sync these at startup by checking date-time of previous upload and getting/pushing the most recent files. A local backup of the last previous saves could help recover in case of bad syncing.

Nature of request

Quality of life enhancement.

Why would this feature be useful?

It would allow to sync various install of RyuJinx to the same set of saves.

This will not be implemented.
It's unfeasible to do a legit setup with Google Drive without breaking their TOS or paying a lot of money.
On top of that we don't want to be responsible for your save data.

If you want this you can download the Google Drive Desktop app and set up syncing yourself.

Unfortunately, setting the save folder as symlink to another folder (that will be synced by my local Nextcloud) on Linux causes the game not to load (have to check the logs) and Ryujinx to be stuck. Needed to kill the process.

Syncing just ~/.config/Ryujinx/bis/user/save works even when sym-linked to a Nextcloud folder!

Syncing just `~/.config/Ryujinx/bis/user/save` works even when sym-linked to a Nextcloud folder!
