Nope, kind sir, I insist that DBI is better than any Sphaira or other user application homebrew — at least, for me. :wub:

YOU DO NOT NEED DBI, YOU NEED DBI AS YOU NEED A NEW HOLE ON YOUR FACE, ANYTHING DBI CAN DO, SPHAIRA AND OTHERS HOMEBREW DO IT BETTER AND NONE OF THEM ARE VIRUSES NOR MALWARE.

Yeah, as far as I know sphaira can do most that DBI can and I can use Goldleaf for the rest. I'll get DBI when somneone can give me a unique feature

The one unique feature it had I was interested in (SDK import/export) got removed in newer versions, to my knowledge.

And yes, I agree that there's no reason to use DBI when other tools can do most of what it can without developer's ominous threat, which you can find on every single release under this repo ("Author Warning on Independent Translations"). It's a proprietary application, so you can't verify whether that is true or not and should assume that it is.

It wasn't removed («Replace SDK» & «Export SDK», respectively):

Does this count, or do we have sys-tweak working in current firmwares? (I truly don't know, I haven't looked)

edit: apparently nxdumptool can also do it, just not as convenient or as quickly.

JKSV or Checkpoint for save manager ?

and for video player NXMP or Switchwave ?

Unnecessary with tools like Linkalho, the other restrictions probably also have respective workarounds in the form of sysmodules.

That is a really good use case, but I don't have anything to use it on.

We have sys-icon, which can change a games title and icon at run time in all software. But nothing more. It also only works up to 22.1.0 (which is the firmware I'm on)

Sorry, forgot to mention I already have JKSV and Switchwave.
NXMP crashes on my switch for some reason.

What does Linkalho exactly do and what other workarounds would there be for screenshot enabling?

Linkalho links a fake account to any Switch profile to work around restrictions imposed for lack thereof.

I couldn't find another method for screenshot/video capture enabling, I confused Switch with Vita homebrew where I know there's a plugin for that. Happens :rolleyes:
