By the way, bad news for owners of Ultrawide monitors:

Last week, users on Reddit and ResetEra noticed that the GitHub library of DIY developer Lyall had been completely erased, with all links resulting in a 404 error. Lyall's work included ultra widescreen patches for major games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Assassin's Creed Shadows, and more.

I have reached out to Lyall and GitHub for comment and will update this story if I hear back. Lyall has posted a message on Patreon apologizing for the takedown, saying they aren't sure what caused it, and noting that they have appealed the ban through GitHub support.

"Having the rug pulled out from under me has been quite the stressful experience and it's exposed the fact that all my eggs are in one basket when it comes to hosting the fixes that I write," Lyall said on Patreon.

"Going forward I plan on looking into alternatives for hosting the source code and releases for my work. I'll likely continue using GitHub if I can alongside mirroring my repositories and releases elsewhere.

"Hopefully this situation will be resolved soon but until then I have quite a lot to think about. As soon as I have an update on the suspension, I will let you all know."

In the meantime, and if GitHub does not reinstate Lyall's account, they have begun uploading their projects to NexusMods as a backup.
