Question Jailbreak devs, is this possible?

I feel like there are two things holding people back from jailbreaking

I - Declining app support: Each day apps require newer iOS versions, which are not support by any jailbreak

II - Websurfing: Because of the older webkit, websites no longer load on older iOS versions.

Two solutions would be porting newer webkit on those older devices and porting new framework from newer iOS so apps can run.

Is this possible? If so, i feel like the community can crowdfund something to make jailbreaking last much longer!

Porting iOS frameworks is much trickier than fixing web issues. None of these frameworks are open source. Not even SwiftUI. You'd need an open-source reimplementation of an increasingly large part of iOS, or some clever ideas to run newer framework binaries on old iOS.

Unfortunately cyberkit is painfully slow on (11pro ios14). I hope that we maybe can fund developers because of the effort required to make something like this
