Nintendo Switch hacked to run Windows 11 on Arm, and it's just about as awful as you can imagine (www.tomshardware.com)

The switch is fun to tinker with if you have a hackable one. I wrote a guide on XDA on how to install Android on a Switch. I didn't actually do any of the hard work to port anything or anything technical, just wrote the guide. I didn't expect it to become like the guide but it did. I saw it used by Linus Tech Tips once.

I kinda felt bad for never updating it. I dunno if it still is up to date enough to still be useful.

I think I used that guide to try out Android on the switch back in the day.
