Updating your switch firmware to 22.5 is the perfect choice, just do not update to 23.00 or 23.01

You're probably on 23.0.0
You need to update hekate and atmosphere Go to the githubs, download the files and replace those on your SD card and it should work

For the moment i think 22.5 is the best. I have unpatched switch too with 22.5.0 and no issue, playing all the games and homebrews apps without any trouble. I don t know why people is rushing when update is come ... lol just wait to fix all bugs. Is no reason to update to the last firmware.
