10k is alot money for anyone but still PS5 sales reaching 92 million units, even a conservative estimate of 0.1% to 0.2% for the jailbreak community translates to 90k–180k users. A crowd of this size has the financial potential to generate donations that far exceed the $10k.

numbers are beautiful. but did you check the devs' ko-fi to have a glimpse of the donations they receive from the scene?

99% of the users want jailbreak just for piracy, or in other words, to get things for free. they won't spend a dime, no matter what. still, they will demand eta, they will put pressure on you requesting other things, they will criticize your work... until you step away.

The only donations void she’ll received where from other devs and YouTubers 99% at least

So this fact tracks. It’s a very greedy scene.

Can you share both with me? The elf and pdf

As for the PDF, you can get it here, thanks to Rasa39. It's the same one I I've got from another great person from here. Thanks to them as well, you know who you are.

Think of it this way. You made $700 for 400 hours of your life that you can’t get back

That is way below minimum wage…

Not yet it can't.... current processing power to allow complete autonomus thinking is still probably a decade or two away... only until quantum computing becomes a reality and processors can shrink will the world radically change... Imagine it though, having an AI model that is so powerful it can circumvent security protocols, hack and rewrite algorithims? That would be the ultimate zero day tool. Does something like that already exist? Who knows... Interesting fact as of 2026 nearly 50% of code is now being AI generated... think about that...

Hahahahhahahah... there is no such thing as artifical thinking, most humans can't get the natural intelligence right, how can humans emulate that which they do not comprehend?

This AI bubble is going to burst. We live in a world that should’ve been forward a million times yet plays by the rules of a 2,000 year old fairy tale book. We could’ve had cures for diseases, flying cars, teleportation, maybe even time travel. Cloning to help people who can’t conceive have children of their own. But so many things are “against God” so any major advances are squashed or squeezed for so much profit, that normal people can’t use it.

You cannot stand for humanity while you kneel for profits.

And also drakmor stealing his original source code and essentially running off with the project to make shadowmount plus. That wouldn’t have been a thing if he didn’t steal the original voidshell code

Wait he stole the code for shadowmountplus? I thought shadowmount was open source, and shadowmountplus was just another fork being worked on, was that not the case?

I mean my understanding was that shadowmount had been cancelled, and yes was due to be implemented into voidshell when it would eventually see a release. But I thought that was why someone else continued to expand on shadowmount, but you're saying he just straight up stole it?

And it's always sad to see these talented devs leave because of entitled pricks. I never understand that, I mean I get it can be frustrating if you want something and you're growing impatient, but you'll get it when it's ready, and more importantly, it's fucking free for you...

That's like complaining to a seller about having to drive to collect an item that is being given away for free, who tf does that? Like if you don't want to wait, then just go and buy the damn thing yourself. I bought all the games I wanted on my retail PS5, then sold it. Now I'm sitting on a hacked PS5 that I fixed, playing with mods and random silly stuff, mostly using it as a PS4, but still, it's good to have all these options for the scene, I mean it's been going crazy lately.

Can't afford it? Well then you'd think you'd have some patience, and not total fucking entitlement, especially when most of the time, we're not talking about kids or teens, all these crybaby bitches gonna be mostly grown ass dudes.

If people are too tired or sick of waiting for a fucking freebie, go get another hobby like omg do something else with your time to keep your tiktok-addled, boomer-turned-zoomer brain attention span busy.

Yeah, and think about how much of that code is wrong. Chat gpt can spell check just fine but it cannot correctly tell you how many times the let r shows up in the word strawberry. I have no worries about computer programs going beyond their programming when not even brainwashed humans can do that.

Stop entertaining us and keep it PS5 related. Thank you.

I find it hilarious how some of you "people" if that's what any of you even are, cannot fathom how things can be relevant without being the same fucking thing. Like how hard is it to compute that the fucking money scam is on fucking topic because it's the only fucking one humans know.

“Stole” might be the wrong word here. But it’s the way void took the situation from my understanding and I can understand why. So perhaps you have a better word but let me explain

Yes shadowmount by void was open source. However void was still activly working on it, at the time before frame decided to die a straight fork (not a pull request to contribute back to the original project)

Fixing bugs before void could, so people flocked to his fork instead since it was being fixed faster. Which demotivated void to continue. This was all in like a 2 week period that shadowmount was forked, and had tbh gs added to it. Instead of a pull request

Which don’t get me wrong, i understand since it was improved a lot. But void has no choice in the matter. He did the initial grunt work and than drakmor went rolling along with it before the void even had a chance to show us what he had planned essentially stealing the show

Which in turn pretty much made voidshell useless to continue which I’ve sure you’ve seen comments in tbis thread as well. Essentially saying voidshell was useless and to not waste time

Which isn’t exactly fair. Void is the only reason we have game mounting the way we do.

So “stole” might not be the exact word. But does it make some more sense now? Void shared the code. Had plans to improve it, and contribute to the community. But then was forked and pushed out of us own project he started within 2 weeks

Did he really steal it? From what I've gathered, Voidwhisper stopped working on ShadowMount and incorporated it into VoidShell, and drakmor continued to work on fork of the ShadowMount, named it ShadowMountPlus. After a while, Voidwhisper included some of the changes drakmor apparently added in ShadowMountPlus into VoidShell 2.0.

I could be totally wrong, but I haven't seen any drama between the two. Not like I was looking for it either.

Ah, fair enough. Wasn't really aware of that. (And didn't check your latest reply before catching up with all the new posts. ^^)

So people literally learn nothing it seems. This is not supposed to be about making money. Again for the millionth time, the moment a dollar changes hands for something that can be used for “warez”, that’s when companies lay down the hammer and start suing. Things like this are SUPPOSED to be free just on that alone. Sad that so many egotistical and shallow people want to enter this just to make a few dollars and live off the approval of strangers. Sony and Nintendo’s bounty programs ruined that for you people and made you think that you need money for this.

That’s why I’m not sad to see them go. I don’t need this shit for “free games”. All I honestly care about is being able to physically own and control what I purchased legitimately. Maybe try out something I’m going to buy to see if it’s worth my money.

I know there’s more to this stuff than y’all choose to believe and that’s fine. Not going to try to argue with y’all and try to speak the truth because as is clear, y’all don’t want to hear the truth and instead decide to spend your time kissing their asses and in some cases try to beg for them to come back.

I have never been wrong on matters like this. My track record speaks for itself. The mountain of receipts where everyone else tries to pass things off as their opinion or their idea when it was mine first.

But that’s fine. Because I’m not a shallow individual that needs any approval and I’m not looking to rip people off.

While I do thank them for their contributions, if they are going to act like children and carry on like buffoons, I don’t want their stuff. Someone else will come along, y’all will gravitate towards them, they get their panties in a bunch and leave, y’all will kiss their ass, then someone new comes along, rinse and repeat. It’s always the same, it’s never going to change.

I’m done trying to reach you people. Because clearly y’all ain’t ready to hear it.

This is supposed to be a HOBBY, not a job.

And that's why void's github repos disappeared and his code became closed source.

Ah okay I get it more clearly now, I wasn't sure on the whole timeline. But yeah you're right I've seen people saying stuff like that, because they just wanted game mounting. It's such a shame but I can understand his feeling when you put it that way.

I mean I used voidshell 2.0 and shadowmountplus together purely for the ffpkg and exfat support because at the time it seemed like Void didn't care about implementing that function, it worked pretty well even after loading both payloads together, and when I saw it was implemented into 3.0b I was chuffed and I've started using it solely with nanoDNS.

But I would never have dreamed of bitching about it regardless of the support, even if shadowmountplus never existed, I just made do with what was available. The audacity of people to complain about stuff like this and go aggro on the dev is crazy to me.

So yeah that is pretty shitty, I mean I get it, but man that is definitely disheartening from his perspective, I don't blame him for ducking out. And if people weren't such assholes, well everything would just be much nicer wouldn't it.

Maybe one day these people will come back once all the impatient assholes have moved on to harrassing some other poor sole on the next gen console or whatever, but I'm not gonna hold them to that. These people are the only reason the scene exists in the first place, talk about biting the hand that feeds.

So he's a liar too. Typical. I don't know why people insist on lying and covering up things. Eventually the truth comes out and you see? Perfect example.

And if something is "open source", it's not "stolen", it's forked.

The right thing for drakmor to have done was to do a pull request and contribute back to the original source

Instead of just ripping it off into his whole thing before the seat even went cold. Yes he did make major changes over time. The first initial updates and fork were not that.

No one is lying about anything. It’s not that deep. Imagine you spent hundreds of hours on a project jsut for someone to copy it within 2 weeks and then no one referred fo your original again, except to complain it’s not working

All while someone not affiliated with you is using your name still and putting a new sticker on your package

You wouldn’t even have time to try to do anything you had planned and are now viewed as the rushed project that wasn’t cared for. Just like VS

How many of those were bulk retailer sales? How many were bulk scalper sales. Don't let their system of over inflated numbers distract you from hating the money scam

Right, so everyone is just going to ignore the fact that the original source code was abandoned, just like so many others. What ever happened to that lib hijacker, kind of sounds like that is exactly what backpork is doing.

Wasn’t it claimed that the GitHub was taken down due to DMCA? If so and that wasn’t the truth, then yes. He was lying. If he would’ve just said “look, I need to move it to Ko-Fi for safety and because my work is being copied”, then fine. At least you’re being up front. But to tell people you been DMCA’ed when that’s not the truth, that’s a lie.

To me, once you lie, it’s hard for me to believe anything else that’s said out of that person.

I was looking at Modded's video on Voidshell and noticed that he mentioned Drakmor's nanoDNS. Has anyone used this as i'm still using 127.0.0.2?

https://github.com/drakmor/nanoDNS/releases

I'm using this one: https://github.com/Al-Azif/chukei-dns

Best one yet (at least for me)

Chūkei DNS is a lightweight DNS relay server. It provides DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) functionality to bypass DNS hijacking by ISPs and other network intermediaries while offering domain filtering capabilities to block unwanted connections like system updates and telemetry.

Primary Use Case

On PlayStation®4/PlayStation®5 systems, Chūkei DNS integrates as a plugin within HEN payloads. By setting the console's DNS to 127.0.0.1, the system cannot resolve domain names until a payload containing Chūkei DNS is executed. Once active, DNS resolution is restored with filtering and DoH protection enabled.

Cross-Platform Support

PC builds are available for development, testing, and general use. Console builds are compatible with all firmwares supported by the SDK; the server behavior is not firmware-dependent.

TL;DR: A locally hosted DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) relay with domain filtering and man-in-the-middle capabilities built-in.

The releases keep coming and coming.... bestpig is gonna be busy at this rate.... lol

Seems like 10.01 is becoming the necessary fw to be on... If that is you don't have the SWRR disc..

At this rate, i'm gonna need a new 8TB SSD
