Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I'll continue to not turn on my PS5 for the last like 18 months.
Make sure to unplug it!
Might as well just make sure it is fully powered off and unplugged so it can't update in low power mode. If it hasn't been updated, it might be useful later on if an exploit is found allowing CFW. I haven't paid attention to the scene much, but old OFW tend to give the best options if found. Only "downside" is online stuff unless options have been found for per-game private servers.
