    Wasn’t there some exposed boot loader keys for the PS5? I’m somewhat hoping to turn my PS into a Linux steam box one day…

    Unfortunately I still want to play games on it until then, so I won’t prevent firmware updates, yet.

    I’m definitely not in the market for a PS6 (when it will be released) however.

        I know about that, unfortunately I’m on the latest system software - I did only recently turn off automated updates.

        And IIRC my PS+ subscription (which I still use) will try to force me to update when a new version is out.

        So, should I disable PS+ just for the hope the Linux Bootloader will catch up to my system software version? That’s why I hope for an (unpatchable) boot exploit.

      I honestly have no clue. I’d use Steam on my PC and just see if I can add my TV as possible output screen. My PC and console are already in the same room anyways.
