Run windows in a virtual machine or with bootcamp. Try to sell it on your local craigslist etc. Someone here might even buy.
I downloaded tinfoil 0.2.1 so many times and it just keeps freezing and wont let me control it. I just gave up...i added a dlc to my super smash bros and at first it worked then it became corrupt so i installed the new update but the dlc is all gone.
Are you using Hekate?
Its recommended not to use Hekate with the newer versions of Tinfoil
From what I have read Kosmos is outdated and it might be the reason why you're having problems
I would say that if you are discouraged with everything you should think about buying SX OS
SX OS has everything you need in order to play backups or homebrew and its very easy to set up
Its also easier to lend support since all the programs are under the same family of SX OS products
Sure, for a lot of people the atmosphere is a good option
But for someone who is looking to sell their switch because they are discouraged by the scene, it might not be
SX OS is pretty much set it and forget it.

my advice is to not use tinfoil
use awoo installer, its better, and it even installs the sigpatches for you so you can install backups

I don't understand why your are complaining about your mac book. I can install any mods on my switch with whatever operating system I try, all I need is a FTP client or a sd card reader.
Tinfoil, hekate, etc etc, all just need to be placed on the sd card and your are done, you don't have to run anything on your mac.
Hell, I install most updates and some homebrews, even games on my switch by downloading them to my phone and them FTPing them over to my switch.
To help you my dude, Mac OSX will work fine.
To make it easier, let's start from the beginning!
Format your SD Card to FAT32 (save the Nintendo folder first to your Mac)
Download Kosmos (https://github.com/AtlasNX/Kosmos/releases) unzip it to your SD Card.
Copy over your Nintendo folder again.
Boot your Switch with a Hekate payload, enable AutoRCM inside Hekate.
Boot SysCFW since it's already "filthy".
Open Album, open Homebrew Store.
Download "Awoo Installer".
Install Signature patches via Awoo.
Reboot your Switch (MUST TO LOAD THE SIGNATURE PATCHES!)
Download https://github.com/developersu/ns-usbloader/releases
Enable XCI/NSZ etc. in settings.
Pick your NSP, XCI or whatever.
Choose "Tinfoil" and "USB" (for faster transfers), plug in your Mac.
Open Awoo again, press "Install via USB".
???
Success!

I am a macOS user. What can I do to help you with ? If it doesn't work for you. There is other option for you. Other method if you want. I dont used those that mentioned here. I stick with my own way and its easy as a piece. Anyway, I installed .XCI, .nsp. and DLC using Mac without a problem. I can help you. It is very easy for macOS.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files
)
