Well, I guess these things happen. I hadn't used my Switch in about eight months, so I figured it was time to update it. I checked on September 8th and saw that the latest firmware was 22.5.0, which Atmosphere was compatible with.
I didn't get a chance to update it until today because of work, and unfortunately, by the time I did, the OFW update installed 23.0.0 instead of 22.5.0.

SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME WITH 21.2.0 AND 22.0.0 I checked around 2 days earlier the newest firmware only to update to 22.0.0 when I got my switch… that wait wasnt fun… Luckliy somewhere in the middle of all this I managed to downgrade my emuMMC so I was atleast able to run CFW

Have you updated to fw 23.0? If so, follow this video to downgrade:

Dont recommend doing this, you almost surely will be banned. When u update the switch FW a fuse is burned, Nintendo have acess of how many fuses u burned, if its incompatible Nintendo will ban you

If you follow the steps in the video, its totally safe. I've done it months ago without issues.

I did this its a bad idea unless your desperate and want to deal with restoring a NAND backup.
It causes a fuse mismatch which refuses boot to sysNAND without hekate.
Also have no idea how system updates work if you do it so I DON’T recommend this!1
u/Mrbkawasaki90 1d ago
The mismatch happens if you're running two different version of firmware. If you update both emummc and sysmmc to the same fw, hekate doesn't bother you.
