UPDATING TO NEW FIRMWARE 21.0.0 IS NOT RECOMMENDED. THERE ARE COMPATIBILITY ISSUES WITH A LOT OF HOMEBREW APPS.

I just saw my OLED is still on 19.x
So I can update to the latest 20.x version without any issues, since the "big break" was introduced by 21.x, correkt?

20.5.0 is safe but if you want to have more memory to play with you should stay on 19.0.0 until you need a higher firmware for the game you want to play ☝️

I'd say that it's pretty safe to update to 21.x.x as far as I can tell. All the games I've played worked without issues as well as a couple of homebrew apps I use (not many, only JKSV and DBI most of the time, emuiibo from time to time as well). Otherwise, yeah, 20.5.0 should be good enough.

19.0.1 and 18.1.0 are still probably the best to use if you don't play the latest & greatest and have a lot of mods and sys-modules.

I see, so 20.x was the reduced RAM FW and 21.x the one who needed recompiling all homebrew apps (which still didn't happen for my favorite homebrew game Blobby Volley 2 lol).

Conclusion: 19.0.1 is the last "good" firmware (highest homebrew compability + more RAM for homebrew and sysmodules). Perfect, thanks!

Edit: Checked back and it's exactly the FW I'm on anyways. Nice. :D
Let's see how long a recent keys.txt will carry me with newer games lol.

The Duckstation has it's "updated" version, however the keyboard is not working inside the application, so for example is not possible to login in retroachievements or changing the BIOS directory path.
