If it doesn't already exist, would it be possible to develop some homebrew that syncs save data between, say, JKSV and Drive for seamless transition between yuzu and a physical switch? I by no means have the skills to do shit myself but am just curious. I saw that there was something similar in regards to RetroArch and wasn't sure what all it entails.

It doesn't exist for the switch, but someone can possibly create it

This is something I've been searching for. I have multiple switch consoles and syncing save data across them on emunand is a pain in the ass. Technically speaking it shouldn't be that hard, take jksv's source code, automate the process of exporting/importing saves for all games and that's it.
SX Save Manager
iirc sx save manager has a one click export function but to import you still need to do it one by one

This doesn't appear to be supported on Atmosphere.

I was hoping that it was at the very least possible which, as it turns out, is. Now I gotta either find something with functionality on Atmosphere or hope someone implements it into their project (or learn how to do this shit and do it myself).

I was honestly hoping JKSV had it implemented but no such luck. Perhaps I'll put in a suggestion to the dev although I'm sure they've heard from others regarding the topic.
