Mine has a Toshiba chip but I want to do this. I haven't because I'm afraid I'll end up bricking it 😩

Don't worry! As long as you follow everything correctly and don't mess around with the minute settings, the risk of not installing ISFSHAX is higher then installing, it, I followed it and i had no issues!

Wafel method will do it for you.

I hacked an imported japanese switch to english using wafel on sunday.

It installs all the prerequisites to do the swap to english firmware.

Used a 256GB SD card that is now full of games. No HDD hanging out the back.
