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?

Make sure you have most update files from the main repo GitHub. https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases. Follow the update instructions

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.

Better Wifi App // VNC Server - MM+ (OnionOS)
I wonder if instead of the WiFi we could use the usb-c port and stream over it just like it is done in Sys-DVR (https://github.com/exelix11/SysDVR) on hacked Switch. That would make the MM/MM+ even more amazing!

What’s your list of best things to add to your modded switch (and what do they do)

Streaming switch games from Switch to TV
You could use SysDVR but you would need a laptop or your tv would need to be able to work with rstp somehow. If you want 60fps then use this https://github.com/exelix11/SysDVR/issues/147
