Heres the funny part. When a "CFW" is only 9MB and "works on all versions of firmwares out there", and a real firmware update is 800MB, when you download it from Nintendo -

- the typical Gen Z'er doesnt even stop in his tracks to think for a moment that the "CFW" might actually be only "patches" of the firmware thats on his device already, and that - when they update it through Nintendos update routines - those might actually update the firmware on the device. (You know, the thing that they are supposed to do..?)

- They also dont think for a second, where the "CFW" might be stored on the Switch (lets see, they didnt buy a modchip with extra NAND; they could read and find out, that emunand isnt finished, ...) so - where do they think this "second firmware" that they can update through Nintendo "lives"?

Also - they love marketing folks lying to them, and selling to them CFW thats actually not a firmware, and emunand thats actually not emunand -- they love that stuff. Eat it up with a spoon. They so happy! They being told thats just what they need, if they want most easy.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Also, make another NAND backup, now that you are on a higher firmware version. Your current one wont boot anymore after being restored (the efuses thing).

Jesus, you're quite the gasbag aren't you? Or is this some sort of ironic stand-up bit that you're trying here before you crap your pants at your local open mic night? Protip: People don't like rambling. Though I am excited to hear of your opening night. I wish you the best of luck. I'm sure you'll be thought as hilarious.
