there are a handful from the jailbreaking days but most people didn't bother because most of the time they were gone with the next ios-update.
If you had Cydia (which basically came with every jailbreak) you had a third party app store. The apple app store was literally inspired by it.
So that's going to change in 2024. They legally won't be able to get kicked off iOS anymore and no jailbreak will be necessary.
