It's a pity Apple still hasn't bothered giving us something similar. The iPad becomes so much more eye-friendly with it in the evening.

Explain how I am going to consume terabits/bytes of data with a throttled 1 Mbps connection. Can't even download anything...
Oh come on... it in no way can match f.lux.
Thank you. It's a classic strawman argument that he's presenting, but hey, who I am to argue with someone presenting facts? (!)
Yes, and be thankful they do, given how many features of iOS that have been implemented which are ripoffs of jailbreak tweaks.
Downgrade to 9.0.2 and jailbreak, or continue using 9.1?
I'm having the same thoughts..
User error. I jailbreak all my idevices (I have an iPad of all CPU generations and many iPhones) but don't have problems as I only install some well-tested, reliable JB tools (iFile, f.lux, Screen Recorder etc.). I in no way install dumb themes - it's mostly these that bog the iDevices down.
if you are simply surfing the web, Opera browser has this feature built into it. There are other applications that offer this warmer lighting functionality as well.
I do a lot of visual customizing on my phone, and these days the only thing that causes instability for me is websites viewed in Facebook or Twitter with endless popups.
Passing on this, just like the last one.. they are unstable. Even with all the revisions of their last break it wasn't a smooth process and the injector was extremely buggy. No tweak I previously used will be updated to IOS 9 anyway since most Jailbreak coders move on so quickly. Cool news for those still interested in breaking, I just see no point anymore.. and I use to be a 100% in.
Why are you surprised by this? Why did nine other people like this? Why does the MR community seem not to really care, as I don't think the previous iOS 8 jb made it to the front page, just a side bar item. This is very exciting. To me, the phone is useless garbage without it being jailbroken. I would had stayed on my blackberry to be honest as I detest android.
True, although Anemone is a huge improvement over Winterboard when it comes to performance. I wouldn't run it on older devices, but my 6+ is always themed.
I wouldn't go that far in saying it's useless garbage, as I can certainly live without a JB iPhone...however, it's just not the same. And I dislike Android too.
I don't think it's going to happen, f.lux clashes with the EXTREMELY cold colours of iOS 7+ (white and blue all the way).
But maybe Apple will take a hint from Pocket, OmniFocus, (its own) iBooks and other apps that have a night mode, and implement a global bright/dark switch. That might be good enough...
For unlimited tethering, flux, location spoofing and 3G unrestriction or the ability to download apps without being on wifi, yes.
Your quote deserves more up votes. There's a lot of functionality in iOS that can be traced back to popular jailbreak features. Not every innovative idea in iOS had it's genesis in Cupertino.
Don't do it. Bad idea.
9.0.2 is horrendously slow and laggy and if you jailbreak, you'll have to stick with it, and you won't be able to get future performance enhancements Apple is already working on (such as with 9.1).
I'm on 8.4.1 waiting on an 8.4.1 jailbreak, since 8.4.1 is already really stable and fast, I think I could hang onto it with a jailbreak.

Absolutely! Seems there are so many possibilities out there that the phone can do. I guess Apple needs to catch up.
Uh, yeah. You can do some pretty amazing or necessary stuff with a jailbreak. Stuff that Apple is too arrogant to implement on iOS themselves.
Remember Control Center? Yeah, that's been a thing on Cydia for several years now. Since, what, the iOS 4 jailbreak?
Yes. Why wouldn't they? iOS still has very real limitations if people want to believe that or not. Those new features in your new iOS? They're still coming from popular jailbreak tweaks...
Yeah I know, I used to jailbreak up until iOS 7 I think then I just don't see the point. Yes there are very cool things you can do just doesn't seem worth it for me.
Hoping Taig releases their version. I had issues with Pangu on prior devices (7.1.2 and 8.0.2).
I jailbreak really for f.lux and ifile. This way I can transfer documents and movies into a 64gb SD card and watch them via the CCK adapter.
Admittedly, I like Movie Box too!
