Why is there a Sticky for Rooting but not one for Jailbreaking MODS WTF. U had one job

[Micro_Voidster]

Not only is Jailbreaking actually still alive unlike the Rooting community. But theres ALWAYS been more users in said community from the very beginning.

When people need to insult other people for no reasons.

One word: lawsuits.

Apple gives far more of a shit about jailbreaking than Google could about rooting in the legal sense.

custom roms are actually quite popular, and unlike jailbreaking, which changes with every update because apple doesn't like it, the process to install ROMs and rooting don't really change from product launch.

ITS LEGAL. They can't sue when its not illegal.

I don't care how Apple spins it the court will throw out the case and the Forum will get advertising from the media attention. 

There are no downsides

Every Root is brand new for each device. 
Every Jailbreak spans 10s of devices and multiple iOS versions.

LTT is literally the biggest tech channel on YT? How much more advertising can they get?

except lawsuits cost money and time and it's really not worth it for one angry guy who hasn't even changed his profile pic.

Tell that to any court who's thrown out cases where people sued when they shouldn't.

You seem to be misinterpreting my disdain for this thread as a disdain for jailbreaking. I don't particularly care. It's all down to the moderators and administrators to judge if it's useful to have a jailbreaking thread up.

false. for example, with Samsung devices, you download the same utility from the same source, no matter what device that uses the same feature and follow the same procedure. the only thing that changes is the ROM file you use, and there aren't sticky posts for individual devices anyway.

its because jailbreaking requires the same process across all devices so the forum about jailbreaking would be just a huge list consisting of tweaks

while rooting sometimes goes wrong(if not most of the time) so troubleshooting is a huge part of that subforum

Moderators aren't here to write guides, we're here to moderate. If you think we need a jalbreaking guide, you can write one and ask the moderation team to pin the thread.

I suggest you read the forum rules ( Community Standards ) ; being condescending and throwing troll accusations isn't allowed.

 

 

And on that
