Obviously I have a switch which is unpatched and I would like to use it for homebrew only ( no piracy ). With that being said, is it still possible to get banned ? If so, why ?

well, sony lumps both piracy and just using homebrew together with: "unauthorized or pirated software." that's to get everything. even if sony, or in this case, nintendo thinks everyone using homebrew is also pirating they can't really prove it.

Never go online
There is always a small risk, but generally homebrew doesn't modify the system, and Atmo redirects log writes, so in theory, it should not be detected, though Nintendo could at any moment add code to detect kernel patches or homebrew in a firmware update. It is always best to stick with an offline or Incognito ( https://gbatemp.net/threads/incognito_rcm-wipe-personal-information-to-reduce-risk-of-ban.549462/ ) patched emuNAND for all your CFW and homebrew needs and keep your sysNAND 100% clean. That way there is just about zero risk (there is a very small chance they could detect the emuNAND partition or files on the SD but that's easily avoidable by using two SD cards)Obviously I have a switch which is unpatched and I would like to use it for homebrew only ( no piracy ).

if you can afford it, buy a separate switch and keep one hacked and never go online and have the other switch to keep legit.
Unlikely. If you only use homebrew, no piracy and cheating shit, you likely won’t get banned.
I just go online normally as I normally would . I’ve been doing this for a year an a half now and haven’t been banned. All I do in my emummc (which is what I use for normal use currently, my sysmmc is used for some spicy memes) is use themes and run homebrew, no piracy or any of that junk.Is there was to attempt to avoid these bans ?
They can’t ban you if they can’t detect it :shrek:I definitely wouldn't risk it. Nintendo doesn't care what you do with a hacked out system, they straight up don't want you hacking your system at all, so if they can detect it's been hacked, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd ban it.
