Updated the title of one section to "Current Userfriendly Exploits" now, just in case.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

It's still an exploit though, hey @EpicLPer, if sufficient proof of it being an actual exploit is shown will you add it to the thread?
Maybe. So far I haven't seen much proof, that said I edited it to "Userfriendly" now.

Like in the "old Wii U days" where we had an active and ever so blooming thread with Homebrew, Discussion, Suggestions, Drama, Trolls and more I'd love to see something like this for the Switch again.
This is the reason for this thread. I'll try and update this post with useful information as much as I can and you guys can help doing so! If something new arises from the hacking community simply post it in here and, if possible, mention me so I'll see it instantly. I can then easily update this post to reflect the newest and hottest Switch news.
Of course, inspired by @filfat and a huge thanks for the Wii U thread he made which sadly over the past few months went more and more inactive.

It would be nice if you weren't biased and would update you OP with newer tools by the community and not discredit other's work. The DNS Redirect is not the same as ProxSwitch at all and ProxSwitch is for windows only and is not the same as DNS Redirect. If you're going to have a thread like this its going to need to be as updated'/informative as possible. Being biased/undetailed and not updating it wont help anyone and will just cause someone else to make an alternate thread..

So I think smea himself got a Switch.

Anyway, how would people begin tinkering with the software? Would people just try to throw "viruses" at it?

You can't just "throw a virus" at something, whatever that means. For the record, a virus is just a program, just like anything else on a computer. And to answer your question, they reverse engineer the code of the switch.

Added now. I may overreacted a bit, sorry for that.

Can't wait smea to start trough. Next week we may have the Bypass we need to get Emulators.
As long as Smea won't be "his old self" again and keeps the exploits for his own entertainment to show off. He did that with the Wii U IOSU exploit way before anyone else had it.
I really hope he changed since then...

I still think about buying a Switch now. But not sure where a 2.0 exploit can lead us, since we need spoof Firmware etc. and this take ages.

Looks like the Switch uses eFuses or something similar:

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
