The main reason I want to jailbreak my ipad

-sideload apps that cant get to the app store, not just for piracy,example :file manager, adblocker, firewall ...

Sure its doable without a jailbreak, but its restricted and require paying apple a yearly $100 developer fee

And some few extra cydia tweaks can be really usefull

I thought you could sideload self-built apps onto an iPhone these days. I mean, it has some restrictions, but at least it doesn't require forking over $99.

Max of 3 apps at a time, side loaded apps expire after 7 days, sideloaded apps also have limitations on what they can / can’t do.
