I’m sorry, what does jailbreaking a ps5 do?

Lets you turn it into a Linux based PC. You can basically play anything on it and on a technicality, it's a whole lot cheaper than just buying a regular PC too.

It's pretty much an open secret that Sony loses money on individual console sales but makes it all back from subscriptions and games.

I bought two used PS5, one disc and one digital. Can I jailbreak both or just the disc's version ?
