Channel comparison

Ryujinx Canary vs Stable

Canary and Stable answer different needs. Pick based on risk tolerance, not just version number.

Pick a channel

Canary is for the newest builds. Stable is for a slower-moving install.

Canary

Use Canary for latest changes

Canary builds update frequently and can include the newest fixes, platform changes, or experimental work. That speed also means a recent build can introduce a new bug.

Stable

Use Stable for fewer surprises

Stable builds update less often and are usually easier for ordinary users to keep working. They may receive new features more slowly.

Choose by need

Use the channel that matches what you are trying to solve today.

Use Stable if you are new

Stable is the better first install because updates arrive more slowly and are easier to reason about.

Use Canary for a newer fix

Canary is useful when release notes or issue comments point to a recent fix you specifically need.

Go back if Canary breaks

If a Canary update causes trouble, return to Stable or a previously working build from the same trusted source.
