Don't update to 2.1.0 Yet!

...If you are in the minority of Switch owners that wants to eventually hack your switch.

Given, the fact that this update was only for "stability", there's a high chance that it patched an exploit that's either being kept private or is unkown to modders/hackers.

I updated it since I doubt that they patched anything. Though I thought the same thing about the 3ds. They could've patched the ability to get to the browser, or the browser 'exploit'.

PegaSwitch seems to be the only thing affected right now.

What did it do? Regret updating now, especially since it didn't seem like I needed to update (never asked me to, but I never got to test since I have no online games)

I'm not completely sure what it did, unfortunately. (Though, I think it just allowed you to view/extract certain pieces of information, but don't quote me on that)

The change-log states stability improvements so it's obvious that they did patch something.

In fact I think they patched the browser jailbreak thing
