It's impossible to brick with any CFW, unless you do something extremely stupid. Like update without FIRM0/1 protection.

honestly, luma is great, but feature wise the options (that can be changed) are very limited.

rx used to have great feature set, given most features of it are now available only in decrypt9 :)

but simplicity, luma is your bet.

@KunoichiZ from I understand is that I need to downgrade to 9.2 in order to use luma3DS and using browserhax requires internet access? (Might cause an update which i dont wont)

You have to physically update your system. Being connected to the internet will download the update but as long as you don't hit accept when it asks you to update, you'll be fine.

@itsjch That and you can just set up tubehax DNS if you want to absolutely make sure you don't update, which will still allow access to browserhax
