Curious to see this myself. AFAIK tinfoil is the easiest way, but some people are wary of its closed source nature.
There's not many good options to be honest. The best installers, DBI and Tinfoil, are both slightly shady/closed source. The next best option is Awoo and Tinleaf, but those don't have MTP Responder and can't properly install block-compressed nszs.
I'm just really not clear how to get in. Seems they want some dlc codes as contributions but I have no clue how to obtain those to get access.
It's become pretty strict due to legal concerns, but there was a shop that was giving out access to new accounts during their anniversary event recently so that could be something to look out for. I think Neko's homebrew store is still available to add onto Tinfoil but you likely won't find official games there.
If you're lucky enough to have some missing DLC though, then definitely feel welcome to contribute to preservation efforts.
There are sites where you can download the game files and install via tools like Goldleaf or Tinfoil. Both seem to support installation over USB cable, so you just have to connect it to your PC and run the tool to install things.
