Version: 22.1.0|AMS 1.11.1|E

What are some essential homebrew programs for the switch that I'm missing?
Already have:

Sphaira
Ultrahand
HB-App-Store
sys-patch
sys-clk
sys-tune
ovl-sysmodules

DBI!.. The most important Switch homebrew, after Atmosphère/Hekate.

After that, Fizeau, Battey Desync Fix, ftpdclassic, Linkalho, NxThemesInstaller, SwitchWave.

What does DBI exactly do? I have heard it's only in Russian or is there a translation?

Pplay : turn your switch into a portable video player.

Yes, but I personally prefer original version only.

Awoo Installer* is essential.
It always goes "Awooo".

Also something something Stepmania

*That anime picture is really sus. Reminds me of the nds Darkfader days...

DBI is goated. It's like 15 apps in one.

Doesn't sphaira do the exact same thing?

@LucaVmu
Nope, sir!

Give DBI a try with the latest version and the translation patch, what's to lose.
It has many features Sphaira doesnt, I use both for each's strengths.

I'd also suggest Themezer and NXThemes Installer for theming and Horizon OC instead of sys-clk.

What does Horizon OC do better than sys-clk?

Horizon OC is a more modern and advanced sys-clk. It gives you more control and configs overclocking CPU, GPU and RAM. As well as voltage control (undervolting/overvolting), memory timing adjustments, and more advanced clock and power-management settings.

sys-clk is fine if you want a simpler and more fool-proof overclock, but you won't get the full capability of your console from what it offers.

Pico if you’re into emulating. Ftpd for wireless transfer from pc. Daybreak for updates and goldleaf. I have a switch lite and fizeau is a must if you don’t have the OLED version
