Nintendo Switch firmware 18.1.0 just released, is another rebootless update

A new Nintendo Switch firmware update just landed. System software version 18.1.0 has been released and pushed out to consoles. The contents of the update are fairly minor, to the point of this firmware being a "rebootless" one, meaning the Switch doesn't even need to reboot in order to apply the new changes. According to known scene dataminers, it appears as though the new firmware exists only to add a handful of Japanese phrases to the system's "bad words list".

Remember when the Wii got SD support?

Remember when the DSi got Facebook upload from an update?

Remember when the 3DS ADDED THEMES?? (Why in the holy mother of fuck did the switch never get this)

Remember when firmware updates actually fucking did something and weren't just stealth anti piracy updates that do absolutely jack shit for the end user?
