Essentially. Palworld JP released a statement that framed the lawsuit as Nintendo vs Indie devs and that they were going to fight it "for us indies, right guys?". The reaction from the Japanese scene has been more or less "we're not with them" or "you don't speak for us". (1/2)
Alright after examination it appears this is about Nintendo/TPC vs Palworld court case, and from the looks of it ZUN views Pocketpair as giving a bad name for indie devs so he's going back to being called a Doujin creator https://t.co/a7q9q3RNRo

ZUN's own tweet is essentially "Well, lucky for me, I'm not an indie dev, I'm a doujin dev, so I'm not involved with this at all!" sort of joke. As a side note, yeah, indie =/= doujin.
