1) I don't know, there are many threads where people report about their delivery time. Just take a look around.
2) Developer stated that 4.1.0 will might get a warmboot. If you care about vulnerabilities in lower firmware, don't update. If you want to play the newest games, update. It's simple as that.

I'm sorry if this question has been asked a lot but, I'm in 5.0.2 waiting for atmosphere, is it safe to update to the latest update or will I be missing an important feature/ability if I do so?

Afaik, there's no reason to not update from 5.0.2 to 5.1.0. Also no fuses are burnt, so you can downgrade from 5.1.0 to 5.0.2 later on.

the guide states i need a 64 gb sd card, does this mean my current one (128 gb) will be pointless after i did the homebrew installation? or is the 64 gb only temporary?

micro sd card (32GB minimum, but you will want a 64GB or larger card in the future)

You need 32 GB minimum, but you can also use a larger micro sd card. 128 GB is totally fine.

So can i use the one i have used since day one without losing any data? that is my main concern

Yes, you can use the same card without losing data. But if you're unsure, you can also make a backup of the micro sd card first.

Will do that for sure, thanks!

Just copy all files from the sd card to your PC and you're good to go.

I've been getting this fairly often. I'm on 4.1.0 using a 256gb MicroSD formatted to fat32. I've been using NXLoader to get into CFW. Installed a few homebrew apps. Havent figured out what triggers it yet. Looked it up, but not much that I could find. Any suggestions or knowledge of this?

Thanks for any help.

Currently on 4.1 and going to update soon.

Anything I should do before I hit the button when I get home tonight and start running LayeredFS?

You can update your switch console without burning fuses. So you can downgrade later on.

SX os burns your fuses. So if your planning on using it, there's really no point in doing that upgrade method

He didn't mention that he's using SX OS...
