If you want to get a custom firmware on your switch, you could choose SX OS, or a free CFW like Atmosphere or ReiNX. I'd recommend atmosphere since it was pretty easy to set up, but i'm pretty sure ReiNX has a super comprehensive guide on how to set it up without needing much knowledge about the switch. LINK

Yes.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

to elaborate. sx-os is the only cfw that will give you xci loading from hard drives\sdcard. NSP installing from hard drives.
built in cheats. emunand. and extremely easy setup.

so their CFW is still the only one today that can run XCI files ? I'm reading that NSP files can get you banned is this true or do both formats come with an equal amount of risk. Also i see that 6.2.0 update has stopped loaders from working is this an issue for sx os ? for example if i were to update to 6.2.0 using ChoiDujourNX

Neither format is safe. XCIs are just safer.
It was an issue for everyone, but Xecuter has already implemented all the stuff.
