The teased kernel webkit-based exploit for PlayStation 5 consoles by Specter has been released as a public open-source repository on GitHub.
While the current exploit might not mean much to end-users yet, it opens the gates for more developers to debug and develop libraries for the system, as well as making the current exploit more clean, reliable, stable and safe for use when the time comes for the eventual homebrew environment to release into the system.

Given the current state of the exploit, it's in a really early stage, and the developer warns that the "stability is not great", sitting at about 30% at the time of release, and that's one of the key aspects to be touched upon into the future.

Reports of bricks also. So be careful.

I wont be exploiting it much since its pretty bare bones atm. By the time we get hen I'd wager a more stable exploit as well.
Just glad to see debug menu on the PS5. I did see the ps4 pkgs on my external, but ofc they cant be installed

Honesty considering the PS5 just got more expensive, I recommend not trying this unless you got a spare.

Have 2 ps5 consoles at home what a shame they're fully in use and updated

I'm old at 41 right now, but I'm happy for people who want to exploit their systems. however, like you, I don't care about it, and it's extremely unlikely I'll exploit my system. I've also already mentioned retiring after the ps4 scene anyway, and I'm sticking to that, I promise.

I think the CMOS battery DRM "bug" is on the PS5 too, so it might be worth considering at some point.

Give it time.

Two actually, in case you brick it.

And remember, Sony raised the PS5 price outside the USA.

I can't get a PS5. This data is meaningless.
