I replied there already.

One more thing, we have an SDL 1 UI but that version of SDL has been
obsolete for a long time. I'm not sure how important that is because I
have the feeling that most (Unix) users are using the GTK UI.

There is a patch to add SDL 2 UI support (patch #430) but last time I
checked it I didn't have the time to review it carefully and I had the
impression that the code needed a bit more work.

However we also use SDL for the joystick and the audio driver, and
that code works already fine as it is with SDL 2.

So it is perfectly possible to let people use SDL 2 as long as they
don't use it for the UI. I wrote a patch to do that:

   https://sourceforge.net/p/fuse-emulator/patches/430/#f60f

(and I'm actually using it already in the Flatpak builds because SDL 1
does not come pre-installed in the runtime)
