its the system I grew up with and I loved watching as the homebrew scene for it grew.
I loved how much progress.
Ninja hax!
How A9LH came to existance. Later B9S.
Then the holy grail of all hacking of the 3DS. NTRBoot. Such an incredible find by Normmatt

Although it takes a long time to follow, It's a thoroughly enjoyable trip to see the progression from "unhackable" to "100% hacked". I still remember when the Gateway flashcard was released and people were going nuts over the possibility of playing backups. The early implementation was one game per microSD card. 
Those were the days!

Yes! One game per microSD card was the good stuff.
In the early days, "Gateway" was seen as this underground cools devs who are helping the scene. Because they so kind.
I got a 3DS right before the n3DS came out and a modified save file of Ocarina of Time used with a PowerSave or the only 3DS flash card available was the only way to get homebrew. It was some stupid Gateway card I refused to buy, so I bought the PowerSave instead. At that time you could only run homebrew, but that was enough for a SNES emulator which was all I really wanted. I stayed up to date all the way through to B9S though. Doing A9LH and downgrading to 2.2 firmware was genuinely terrifying.

I remember the 3DS hacking days, like the time I bought Cubic Ninja for 70 euro to try out Ninjhax.
I remember using Asia81's 3DS Toolkit for converting my 3DS ROMs to CIA before GM9 was a thing.
Still waiting, hasn't been out yet. Lol.I wonder at how much % Crown 3DS currently is

3ds hacking taught me about mounting an emmc with an sd adapter, to date it's still one of my all time favourite hacks. So simple and so versatile.
I remember when someone modified the gateway menu and you could downgrade to 4.5 from 9.2 but 4,5 was finnicky so it would take sometimes like 3 or 4 tries to get to emunand (you couldn't use sysnand to play games) Rx-tools! such memories

For me, those days were the PSP homebrew scene around 2006. Using Devhook on firmware 1.5 to play backups over USB and all the amazing emulators too.
I remember when i thought 3ds hacking was some ultrahackezz Mr robot shit. Then I modded my switch, came back to it and found it to be fairly easy
Until they released an update with brick code and glitches in the clone detection code bricked a small number of 3DSs running genuine Gateway hardware.
i remember using some terrible tutorial that ended up making me wipe my entire system to hack it, installed RXTools, and then rosalina started to be a thing (later renamed to luma), also the gatekeeping when a9lh and then b9s came around, with that badge someone set up to "prove" you were one of the first few to do it, i registered to get one, never did
true OGs remember the gacube emeleter on mi lima332ds hax
also the youtube entrypoint was a true classic

Same, not just in terms of hacking but just in general. Idk it gives me this warm feeling inside, dunno what it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
