Huh, you're right, I didn't know that.
But yeah, looks like the jailbreak process only works up to firmware v6-ish... which means you'd have to have a PS5 that was mfg'd before, and hasn't been connected to the internet since basically December 2022.
And, apparently, because this doesn't actually overwrite the PS5's OS, you have to do some fuckery to boot into SteamOS every time?
