Hourlies are good. I've been using them since November when the redirection changed. I update semi-regularly and have had zero issues.
Just did it. Felt a bit alien to me because of a few new things and realizing that game patching does everything that language emu does and more. Hope i didnt pick anything out of place tho

Is there anything in particular that I should take into consideration when updating from 6.7 to the latest hourly?
There is no 6.7. That's why everyone's updating to hourly. The path for things changed.

Code:
Added RomFS redirection courtesy of @delebile, changed structure for game patches:
language emulation txts now go to /luma/titles/<titleid>/locale.txt, code.bins go to
/luma/titles/<titleid>/code.bin, RomFSes go to /luma/titles/<titleid>/romfs

EVERYONE? Well, I guess I'll not then. I'm afraid of BRICC. 6.6 never gives me problems anyways.

Hi all, I haven't used my 3DS in a long time and the luma updater launcher seems to be broken? It crashes upon boot. How do I update and reinstall it manually? Thanks

Can you please tell me if is it possible/safe to update sysnand through arm9loaderhax+ luma 6.6 with sysupdater?Because I'm having problems to update via system update.

I remeber that rxTools 3.0 had something about "firmlaunch" (patch active), which bricks the 3ds if you try to update sysnand with boot rx in sysnand mode, we had to use "devmode" option to update , actually I did this one time and worked fine, just need to know about luma.

Thank you.

Can I update from latest stable to nightly and not lose anything (dlc, games, save files)? Like I know they won't get deleted but I hate having to move stuff around cuz the title id's as folder names is aggravating lol

Yeah, you won't lose anything, but you'll have to move bunch of stuff if you use patching or language emulation.
