Heads up, as of last night you can’t search MangaDex via the old extension. Manga you already have favorited are still updated, but you can’t find new ones to favorite
What a shitshow to wake up to… Fuck Kakao Entertainment, may they kill themselves.
Replacements: Mangadeamon, Mangasushi, flamescans, Mangabuddy, Mangakakalot… Diversify your library while the dex extension still works. Some scans on those btw get updates before Dex does.
Edit: this company was registered in 2021… They definitely don’t have a case as mangadex has been there longer than this and same with the extension. Fuck those greedy bastards, if you know someone using anything from them, give that person a educational slap.
I wouldn’t endorse Mangakakalot, they had some involvement in the Mangadex DDOS/breach a couple years back. Not to mention unlike MD they’re a scan aggregator, which basically means they take scans from other sites (like Mangadex) and slap ads on top of them.
The extensions of tachiyomi are ad free so i don’t really care about that, but yeah there are a lot more to chose from if you want to avoid them (wich is totally fair, i don’t know about the bad stuff they do or did, i just want to read Mangas on my E-reader)
Greed, thats all. They know that a non profit can’t defend themselves against this bs. Hope someone shoots whoever made that decision. People have been shot for less…
Someone will surely find a workaround to this. Half my library on tachiyomi is from mangadex lol
Edit: I did find a workaround, an unofficial repository for mangadex and bato extensions. As of the moment bato extension seems to be broken, but hopefully a patch will be released soon. The developer of the extension still plans to maintain it afaik
30% of my mangas are located on mangadex and the others are located on different sources. That’s good because my migration process to other sources is not really tedious. That’s why diversification of different sources are important nowadays
