SURPRISINGLY ENOUGH THIS IS A SERIOUS BLOG ENTRY
Honestly, I think A9LH was too much of a revelation for the kiddies here on GBATemp. It made a good chunk of the population into insincere elitists who only try to impart their ways onto other people. Nowadays, here's an average thread on GBATemp.
OP: "I'm wondering if I can do XX on my current setup"
Reply: "I KNOW YOUR PROBLEM YOU SHOULD INSTALL A9LH!!!"
No one is considerate of other people's interests, or their preferences and they relentlessly try to convert anyone they can to the so-called 'masterrace'. What started off as a completely harmless development that was exciting to follow has become a cult, and no lie, the OTP Guide is, safe to say, a copypasta at this point.
Not to mention, people here have devolved to displaying toxic behavior towards other members and labeling them as "lesser" because their piece of plastic isn't running a feature that their's is.
Even the guide itself is flawed. It changed from being a guide to retrieve your OTP, to essentially a guide to install what is subjectively the best setup of Luma3DS.
I guess at this point I'm rambling but my main point stands that this community is on a serious decline. I'm not saying it wasn't like this before, but it's definitely a lot worse now than it could've possibly ever been. There's an endless loop of people who think the only solution to a general problem is installing A9LH, there are people who scorn others for not having "the holy setup", there are people who ridicule people's taste, and a large portion of people here practice what is essentially peer pressure, in the sense that they force A9LH on others, even when the end user might not want it.
