Ok so I am the one who posted before about boot loop switch lite. When I updated with JITS, it did turn on but quickly went back to the boot loop, but I noticed I have a TON of files on the SD card. What on here can I delete?
If you need examples of boot ini pointing to Hekate or straight to Atmosphere, someone did it alongside slightly older guide to switch from SX CFW to it

Is it worth just pawning my switch?
I was an SXOS user that's come back to see SXOS no longer exists, and the slog of upgrading is a horrific, multi-day long process involving 50 page long guides (https://github.com/dsync89/Ultimate-Guide-to-Migrate-SXOS-SX-Core-to-Atmosphere), and watching awful tedious youtube videos.

Should I update Nintendo Switch before starting RCM process?
I have a v1 unpatched Switch. I'd like to start the process of installing custom firmware. I read this note about being careful to make sure Atmosphere and Hekate support the latest firmware before updating, which they both seem to. But there's also something about gamecard firmware?

Modded Lite Won't boot hekate.
I've installed modchip on Lite. It shows the "no sd card" logo. I've tried both hekate official gitthub and HATS packages loaded into an SD card, but it gives a black screen. It returns to no sd card when I press the power button for 10 seconds after removing the sd card.
