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.
Tapas bought by Kakao, and some titles uploaded on batoto.
S.Korea's Kakao to buy two U.S. storytelling apps for $950 mln
This is from one of the webtoon series on batoto
I'm not sure why they sent the removal request to tachiyomi devs
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...
No one ever shoots the people that deserve it most.
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)
