I'm a Collaborator in this repo and most of the updates since 2.1.2 are from me.

You can consider builds in my repo nightly builds of LiveContainer that are very likely to be merged to this repo if it's stable enough.

ok nice but why don’t you name the fork to livecontainer beta or livecontainer nightly or something like that and also add a link somewhere in the normal livecontainer repo for it?

also, i know this is off-track but about the 255 data container limit, can’t we just check if the user is using the latest altstore (the version without the bug) and if they are using the latest altstore, we let them use up to 255 data containers but on side store (still has the bug) we limit it to 3?

SideStore only needs wifi connection (hotspot should work aswell) to sideload and refresh, and you can use SideStore inside LiveContainer if you want an extra App ID.

nice, but what prevents us from installing multiple side stores with different apple id’s linked?

Only a curiosity, do you want install multiple sidestores with diffeerent apple ID in LiveContainer or directly in the iOS?

I can't understand, with last altstore you can install in it for example 100 LiveContainer? There is not the 3 app limit?
Can you explain better? So i can report the bug also the sidestore dev.

3 app limit. Multiple SideStore (or multiple Apple ID in SideStore in LiveContainer) is only useful if you have the 3 app limit bypass.

Definitely livecontainer, as altstore has a limit and livecontainer doesn’t. Also, when i try creating a new apple account, i get the error “Cannot verify email adresss”

wait, it still applies even in a different apple account?

I think it's not possible to use different apple account IDs at the same time. This would have been an "almost" definitive solution for years.

No, i mean like we use sidestore via LiveContainer and use a different apple ID then the one registered to the AltStore that i installed Livecontainer in
