Make new accs after you download 2 patches ezpz

GENIUS! How did I not think of that.

This is a jailbreak tweak I've happily paid for from the beginning. I also happily paid for the upgrade from 2 to 3. "3 is greater then 2", as has been previously stated. 

The UI is much better with 3, the cloud has ability to comment on any patch, you can rate if the patch worked, see trending / hot patches as well as new ones.  Also many patches uploaded via 3 don't show up in Flex 2.   Patches in 3 also show app version patch was made for, and your installed app version.

Unfortunately though the main patches that trend are ones that don't work, and most "Popular" section patches are outdated/ useless.  It could definitely use more improvements, but Flex/Flex2/Flex3 has been one of the main reasons I made sure I always had a jailbroken device.  I learned a lot from it too, learning how to make patches b4 I knew exactly what I needed to override, all from trial and error.

It's helpful in some tweak development situations as well, for testing without having to make any hooks, pref bundles, make package install, or Respring (unless it's a System or SB patch).

With all the functionality introduced with Version 3 Beta, and the benefit Flex has had for the Jb Community as a whole over the years, I wouldn't use a cracked version even if I had the choice, despite having several complaints with the whole cloud system/ patch approval process.

I did for the most part stop uploading patches though, after having some denied for unlocking paid features (which I understand but there's no consistency with it), but also some that didn't even have piracy / free in-app features.  Also having popular working patches with thousands of downloads removed for no reason and without notifying me, I got a bad taste for sharing original patches.   

Until Punksomething stops approving patches he knows don't work that are advertised as piracy/ cheats/ cracks, that fill up the trending and popular sections of the cloud, I don't see the point in sharing my work on it anymore. Especially since I could just make a tweak instead.  I haven't even updated a patch in ages.

I still think that you should get Flex 3, not 2, and just figure out a way to pay for it to support the dev.   I realize you can crack apps, use class dump, disassemble them and patch them that way or a million others, but Flex is convenient regardless of which version is used, since it's all in one app.  It's great for deciding if you even want to crack and disassemble some apps too based on the headers, and the peak you get at how the app works, and how much security it has.
