    Just seems like another copycat web installer to me. Even the name is taken from Itweakstore, just with the word deb replaced. The only one that has proven to be working is Lima, which started over a year ago.

    If there was a way to create a better Cydia, Cydia would do it. Cydia is as good as it gets.

    Interesting opinion. Not necessarily true though.

    Name an "Alternative" that was successful or better? None.

    Cydia will always be the best. Also, the fact that it took you 1 minute and 22 seconds to open means you have a "slllllllllooooooooowwwwww" iPod. Uninstall tweaks and it will open in about 10 seconds.

    Cydia is the best, no doubt. But it could certainly be better. It needs a UI revamp for a start.

    Icy was one that was pretty awesome.
    Rock as well had many great features, just buggy

    Icy was a wonderful alternative, except for the whole ad controversy.

    No tweaks installed bro. That's just my lovely iPod.

    C4NNIBAL is right, Icy was awesome and Installer 4.0 was... interesting.

    You can not put down an alternative before even trying it. It has not been publicly released yet. Your argument is both strongly opinionated and fanboy-ish. You are entitled to your opinion however, and I like hearing them.
