switch hacker 37 doesnt have a switch?
How about we don't aim for drama and dream to learn from the tribalism that seriously made the 3DS hacking scene a toxic mess. It turned what should have been a scene of fun hacking and individualism into a group of cults hating each over. This is something we need to learn from and discourage from happening again.
It was fake gateways that bricked. (and some corrupted file transfers)

There was no other choice but gateway for about a year, this time we already have cfw coming, and I feel software support will be better for bypassing drm on our "legal backups".
It was their code that bricked fake devices.. They punished the end user for being ripped off.

That's probably not true though. Team Xecuter stated on their site:
Just because someone posts a "chatlog" with someone saying it will be 30$ and preorders start on saturday, it does not mean it is true.
I wish it was, but don't count on it.
No one was ripped off, people bought fake cards because they were cheaper, im not saying it was okay, just it is really weird to buy a fake card that uses other companys software, its also very interesting to see if this new switch modchip will have anything like this, because if not, we should all be able to use it. Payload can probably be sent to switch from pc with a usb c cable.
It's not like what they're providing has no monetary value. What they're selling is essentially a pre-setup raspberry pi 0 dongle, stuff like that costs money and takes time to setup. Time a lot of people(who are going to buy this) don't have or don't want to invest. In addition to that, the dongle comes with their own software which took them months to develop.
Regardless of whether or not their price is reasonable: (i don't know yet, if you were to build such a dongle yourself you would be paying $20-$30)
I don't understand all the hate they're getting. Nothing is wrong with providing a (not free) optional product. Stuff like this has been around for years(flashcarts, ps1-ps2 modchips, modded xbox drives etc.) and nobody is forcing you to buy it. You can go out, buy the necessary parts, and build it yourself if you like.
TX does it for you, and they even give you the software you want for it.
If you expect them to do it for free just because the exploit is public or there are free alternatives you're just dumb. Hardware is not free, most software isn't either and it has never been. Just because this is something used for piracy doesn't change that fact.
And while i can't recommend people to buy this, there's nothing wrong with doing so for convenience' sake. And in the end, it all comes down to the price.(everything above $50 would be a blatant ripoff)
Much of the 'race' is imagined by end users on here, they target quite different types of users.
Atmosphere is an open source project with contributions from a huge amount of developers. It's open nature means that anybody can contribute towards its development and it will grow as a project. If development halts, anybody can fork it. It has the potential to grow beyond closed solutions because of this in the way that Luma did, but might not offer the quick fix solution for piracy in the short term and might need a little more interest and maintaining from the end user.
The TX device is more for people who are less interested in the hacking and exploiting of their console and more interested in a simple solution. Similar to Sky3DS and the like in a sense. It's designed to be simple to use with support, though the closed nature of the project means people are somewhat at the whim of TX maintaining it. It's not of such huge interest to developers because they cannot contribute to the code.

I am one of the gateway early adopters. Do I still use gw? No, I use Luma now.
Do I regret buying gateway? No. It gave me what I wanted at the time I wanted it. Bottomline: I will probably buy the TX dingle and in a few years when free cfw is better than that change my setup. I think it's all about convenience.

I'll take the CFW that gets there first. The problem with TX CFW is that the Dongle still has to be shipped and if the thing really come from China or can only be produced on demand, can it take 2-3 months or longer...
So far, Team X has my money for it's simplicity and ease of use.
Team X = Capitalist
Reswitch = Communist
As demonstrated, money makes the world go round... money-driven projects can be accomplished quicker because there is a reward. With a free project, people took their time with no hurry.
