Nintendo 3DS gets a new firmware update for version 11.14.0-46

2020 hasn't been the most stable year, but at least Nintendo is hard at work making sure that above all else, the Nintendo 3DS is the most stable thing in your life during these trying times. The system has just received a brand new firmware update, the first of 2020, to be exact, bringing the revision number to 11.14.0-46. Currently, the yls8 page shows us that a few changes were made regarding the web browser, NATIVE_FIRM, and more. The official changelog from Nintendo says the oh so popular phrase you've come to love:
  • Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.
Considering the random nature of this update, and the first few initial claims of those that took the plunge already, you might want to hold off on updating for right now, if you value having homebrew on your console. Reports state that Luma3DS is crashing, and that BrowserHax has been patched.

I thought this update a bit random, but didn't the Vita just experience an update also? (recently?)
not since 2019 on the Sonnny website:
System Software Update 3.73
An update to the system software for PlayStation Vita systems and PlayStation TV systems was released on 10/16/19.
 
you can't buy DLC with titles you haven't legitimately bought.
You can - they are in fact completely separate titles, maybe it was a foreign title or you had unsigned tickets for the dlc title installed

Is downloading firmware files directly to PC even possible anymore?
Sure, with 3DNUS or one of the many imitations

I dont even see the logic of releasing firmware if they already retired the 3DS family.
In countries with decent consumer rights like the EU ;) , products have to perform as advertised AND reasonably expected "for a reasonable amount of time" (possibly longer than the standard 2-year warranty), and while legally the risk and responsibility for all of that is on the seller... better to avoid a scandal of leaving remote arbitrary code execution on it (from the company that blocked swapnote due to two (2) child molestations scandals), amirite?

What’s more stable, the ps3 or the 3ds?
PS3 does in fact get new features with all the "recent" security updates, namely support for the newest commercial bluray movies :D
