YouTube Runs on a Jailbroken Nintendo Switch 2

A video shared by X user @byizmysh reportedly shows YouTube running on a Nintendo Switch 2. The project is said to be based on VacuumTube, an open-source client.

The development follows the release of what Wccftech describes as the first Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak. That initial exploit was tethered, meaning it required a connection as described in the report. Wccftech says the release prompted further experimentation with the console.

Separately, another known hacker has reportedly developed an untethered exploit. The report says it could lead to further developments, but provides no additional details about the exploit or its capabilities.

The YouTube video and the reported untethered exploit are separate developments. The available information does not establish that the untethered exploit was used to run YouTube on the console.
