I see a number of you YouTubers making videos on how to install HBL, but I've yet to notice one mentioning backing up the NAND. I see links in the descriptions to GBAtemp, from time to time, too. Sounds like an important step to leave out.
Hacking Suggestion So many YouTube install videos without mentioning NAND backup

I a lot of those tutorials seem to be made by people for quick views without the knowledge they should have when making such videos.
Well, making a backup is common sense/knowledge for most people, so it's not really that absurd to not include that information.
Either way, Hekate can do you nand backup, as well as linux.

You can use hekate to back up your NAND. When you've got onto hekate, there's a tools option I believe. From there, you have to click dump Raw NAND and that should do so onto your SD Card.
Just format your sdcars to fat32 so you can use it for the mean time.

It's because it's unneeded. There's almost no way to softbrick your Switch.
I mean, it would be "nice" if youtubers made a comment about NAND backups before their tutorials but at the end of the day is not their responsability. We are the ones that are modding our consoles and should know what that comes with.
If you need to be reminded about making a backup everytime, then you probably shouldnt do anything to your console.

Tell that to the purple screen guy
Some guy bricked his switch (sidenote: it matched his keyboard at least
) and it gave him a purple screen. He didn't backup. Here's the thread:https://gbatemp.net/threads/permanent-violet-screen-on-switch.503909/

I'd like to find a power strip and HDMI selector built in 1 unit, so I can select which game system I want, and will switch to that hdmi, and power on that plug/power supply only, so don't have all game systems powered all the time, but can't find anything like. May just have to make something myself.
