Going by memory...

In 2016, the guy behind PS Vita's HENkaku said the console would no longer be moddable. In 2018, he found a new exploit that Sony was never fully able to patch, plus supposedly there are two more exploits someone found but is holding until they might be needed.

Apparently earlier this years, the revised Xbox 360 models finally became moddable.

The PS5 had a same exploit as the PS4 due to the shared base. Same with the PS Vita on later system updates with some PSP games on the PSN.

Also everyone's afraid of anti-consumer Nintendo doing lawfare, so staying low on the radar is understandable.

Recent and recent-ish developments & setbacks should serve as examples that patience is good in such cases.

Also, if one wants to mod the console for legitimate reasons, and not just to be a dirty pirate, do push for consumer-friendly systems, as well as for better laws and culture. Even if that means the Switch 2 ain't getting a mod any time soon, it should be a small price for a better future.
