The guide is one of the best I’ve seen for this type of project. It does this easy presentation way of showing the instructions to do the jailbreak. I ran it on one of my older candles a few weeks ago just to try it out and didn’t have any issues.
It’s too bad I can’t jailbreak my current Kindle. I’ve gotten used to having the warmer backlight in the slightly larger screen.
I would have to award that to GrapheneOS. Being a web-based installer, GrapheneOS is able to add buttons that directly perform the major actions right in the guide itself. At each step, instead of having a link or something and saying "go here and do this", it simply provides you with a button that actually performs that step's action right then and there. It is incredibly straightforward.
