I’m pretty sure the term jailbreak comes from the term “jail” being used on FreeBSD, which iOS is based on, which is an application sandboxing tool, therefore, a “jailbreak” is a method to escape that sandbox and gain elevated permissions to the system.
iOS being a jail is a pretty apt analogy, regardless, though.
Android is a fenced garden compared to the fortress that is iOS.
Did the same on iOS… not a huge difference. Download app from store, set as default.
On iOS the browser isn’t really Firefox. It’s just a re-skinned Safari due to apples rules. I think now they are allowed to ship their own engines
They are but it’s not ready AFAIK https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1882872
Can’t wait to use it though and be able to install WebExtensions.
I guess, but it’s like a 2 foot high fence
iOS is just a jail. Even users are calling doing what they want that Apple do not want a jailbreaking.
