[Question] Odysseyrain Vs. Checkrain
So I recently learned about Odysseyra1n, before that I was using Checkra1n, and switched over to it, and based from everything l've researched and now from my own personal experience it's a lot better. So my question is, 1. why is it so unknown like I had never heard of it before this one random Reddit comment on this sub and I'm pretty in the know about most things iPhone jailbreak... 2. For those that do know about it but still use Checkra1n, why, what's the advantage?
