A new jailbreak for a new era

Same boat here. From the iPhone 3G to the 6 I was always jailbroken, including even the tethered jailbreaks.

Then at some point I just stopped caring. It's so much effort to keep up with this stuff (same reason I don't use Android devices, with all the alternative firmwares and such). My stock iOS device is about as reliable as a device can get and I'm relatively happy making the complete freedom tradeoff. I'm not sure how bad of a thing that is however.

Occasionally I'll want to do something like spoof my location and get annoyed that it's not easy. But I just...don't care 99% of the time.

I'm like you, there are things I would like to do with my phone that I am prevented from doing but the alternative is too much effort and I don't care enough to take it.

It does seem that slowly iOS/ipadOS is getting more fully featured as they try to make the ipad a real laptop alternative.
