I get so fed up of these updates, 18.0 gas not been out long and you get nagged/harassed by Nintendo in to taking these updates and unlike Apple you can’t turn off updates or update notifications. It feels like I’m being bullied in to taking updates and how many updates can you take before they brick your device?

The shops that exist dont even know how they were made at this point lol I doubt they will want to remake thousands of forwarders. Its a lost cause at this point
Then a solution is a patched exefs (I think it was) so old forwarders work, but why do that? :P

You don't. You either have to figure out how to make the forwarder yourself, or wait for the fix that will never come.

what functions are forwarders using that makes them sometimes stop working on major firmware updates, anyway?

You can avoid updates by blocking communications to Nintendo servers : https://switch.hacks.guide/extras/blocking_nintendo/

Why not? Blocking Nintendo servers with DNSMitm should work on all editions of the Switch
He didn't say you cannot use dns.mitm on an OLED. He was saying that you need a modchip such as the picofly to boot CFW in order to use dns.mitm. However, what both of you don't realize is that there ways of blocking Nintendo's servers without CFW.
You can’t without a picofly on the oled
I don't think you clicked the link at all. If you did, you would have noticed 90DNS which can be setup without a modchip or CFW.

You could even protect your whole network by setting a custom DNS in your router settings :
Location Primary DNS Secondary DNS
Europe (Server located in France) 163.172.141.219 207.246.121.77
America (Server located in the USA) 207.246.121.77 163.172.141.219

https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-change-dns-servers-on-most-popular-routers-2617995

In that case you wouldn't need to do anything else on the switch itself.

But it's not ideal if you have another Nintendo console that needs to contact Nintendo servers.
In that case, you can set up manually a custom DNS in any console, modchip or not, via its own internet settings :

https://www.nintendo.com/au/support/articles/how-to-manually-enter-dns-settings/ (customize this guide, replace Google public DNS IPs, 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, with the ones listed above)

Idk if its the same situation but I get this "hos version not supported" error when I update firmware before atmosphere..
Try updating the atmosphere files on your sd card and reboot.. Follow a guide carefully and always update atmosphere BEFORE trying to install new FW. Keep in mind atmo always has a latest supported FW version and exceeding the maximum FW version number will break atmo in the manner you are seeing here.

edit: just realizing OFW was mentioned.. im assuming sysCFW is what were actually talking about here..
