Nah I don't think he was sent to complain here. He has a pretty big post count.
Those are just numbers. This dude could be doing anything here.

OP, which version of Luma? Also, try checking "Disable ARM11 exception handlers" in Luma Settings. I've had very minimal issues after checking this.

Just typing this out of my own experience. Boot9Strap crashes far more EVER than what Menuhax+EmuNand and Arm9loaderhax did for me in the past.

Loading up mods? Crashes the entire 3DS instantly
Loading .cia homebrew? Crashes the entire 3DS on start/exit
Just using it normally? Crashes the entire 3DS in mid gameplay

Although I have faith that Boot9Strap will fix these, it just crashes alot more often than it should.
Also before you say that my SD Card is fake or my 3DS is faulty. I bought it brand new out of the box and bought the SD Card at a trusted retailer.
What games? I've had 2 arm11 exceptions since rosalina release both being download play not having correct permissions to update homebrew.

I quit using my gateway when rxtools came out. I've had a couple crashes but homebrew launcher related so not too big of a deal. Check your setup, Luma has been pretty reliable since it was AuReinand

If you aren't on the latest Luma (8.1.1), try updating, supposedly the latest version is more stable.
Also, you could try the latest nightly: https://astronautlevel2.github.io/Luma3DS/
I can see you are trying to help. but ive had these issues for months now. And they advised the same thing back then. Meanwhile these issues still exist. And yest im using the latest 8.1.1

Have you made any home menu modifications in the past? Have you checked run external modules, since that should be disabled. Also, for the record, whether the blame is worth it or not, Everybody could care less that you're unhappy with your cfw. This isn't a customer service where you can speak to the manager if you complain enough, this is a website where people try to help others based on just the will to do so. Complaining will only make people less inclined to help you. If you're unhappy with your current setup, there's a good chance something just went wrong, as hundreds of other people use it with no issues. Just keep the regret to yourself instead of making yourself seem like an upset customer at king kullen.

I think ive had home menu hax in past. Run external modules, is that an option in luma? Ill have to check.
Don't think you speak for other people it makes you look arrogant, but yes its prolly true what you say, if most are happy with it.
But mostly im just giving an opinion rather then looking for help or other people that feel the same way since i know it will be folly most likely.
Im happy it works for 1000000x people. But for me it's 10 steps backwards.
Not much that I (the user) can do wrong tbh... only check this option or that in luma option and using the most up to date version.

These issues are happening to quite a few people. The issue is said to be in Luma but they haven't pinpointed the cause. You can send the dump log files in the Luma directory on your SD to the developers and set up and issue report on the GitHub if you want to help is what I am told. I have 3 systems and 1 has this issue. Even swapped SD cards. I want to update a friends system but I'll wait until all of this is straightened out.

Try taking out the sd card and loading up the console. If you haven't copied boot.firm to the ctrnand do that now.
