No.111910
you guys remember a few months ago when some groups who felt like they were being jewed by mangadex leaked the head saying he would make the site go legit if given the chance? Well, apparently they're now directly linking chapters to the official english release for any series published on Shueisha's mangaplus, most likely in a bid to get officially recognized.

Mangadex is becoming a threat to scans/pirating. Remember how Jewcob of Fakku DMCAs hentai sites?
Find an alternative site for scanlators to use and shill the fuck out of it.

They want to go legit. Think of them becoming a mix of CrunchyRoll and Fakku.
Now, imagine them DMCA scanlators and manga sites.

This may just be them trying to compensate for the groups that left the site during that debacle, since the main group behind that, Jaimini's Box, did a lot of the series that are also on mangaplus. However considering the mangadex staff's response to the whole thing was essentially "us going legit isn't feasible at the moment, but if we got the chance arose we would take, why is that so bad???" this still comes off as a little suspicious.

Batoto was always shifty as fuck from its whole sharing the money with scanlators and playing the autist's "muh delays" game. Doesn't really surprise me that the site that popped up touted as its replacement is pulling higher level shenanigans.
Really only again proves how putting cash into the mix always fucks with fan-run communities and effort.
Other than that, who want's to bet how long till inevitably they paywall their shit, and some horriblescans ripping group pops up effectively becoming 90% of the scans in circulation?

sounds less like they are less an affiliate and more another way for them to appease moralfags or legalfags uppity about manga piracy. I remember when someone scanned that kaiju girl manga after it got licensed, people were having intense arguments about the ethics of fan scanulation in the comment section.

They can go fuck themselves. They need to have balls like other manga aggregators and embrace their piracy.
Nothing about scanlation is "ethical", they are just cherry picking what they think is "unethical" when in reality all scans whether it got officially liscensed or not are actually piracy and would be both treated as unethical.

a lot of mangadex users are newfags who never heard of mangaupdates anon, so they want mangadex to have similar features. Judging by the reaction in their forum, this seems to have been a requested feature. I suppose one should blame the community for dumbass moralfags and requesting such a thing. Also you know mangadex doesn't give a shit if you scanulate an already licensed manga right(at least not currently)? Sorry, if my post made it sound as such, only the community really cares about the ethics of piracy, the mods have been sufficiently handwavy abotu how "grey" scanulation can be. As long as you ain't reposting shit from an official scanulation in current publication, you are good. Mangadex might jew out in the future, but this seems to be mostly moralfag/normalfag appeasement

Isn't that basically pretty much most aggregators?
What you get in not having to deal with scanlator drama and moralfaggotry fucking up what series are available, you pay in swimming in aids infested waters.
That being said, what kind of retard browses the internet these days without at the very least a layer of ublock/umatrix, and only selectively enabling scripts?
Hell, even if it wasn't for malware, you'd still end up with a completely unresponsive site gobbling up shitloads of memory, because almost everything is tied up in unoptimized, obfuscated JS.

I have ublock and umatrix, but I'm far from the average /tech/ user and struggle with creating scripts. Regardless most aggregator sites aren't competently run. Depending on the series your following the aggregator might not have it. This doesn't take into account how virtually no website apart from madokami upload actual official scans. So finding a good aggregator is hard as hell. There's a reason batoto became popular beyond scanulator shit.

I'm pretty sure they are competently run, when you consider that they are mostly run by chinese and/or the spiritually chinese with the goal of getting a quick buck off normalfags who don't run any kind of adblocking.
>This doesn't take into account how virtually no website apart from madokami upload actual official scans
Official scans aside, there is a real lack of any dedicated download repositories as far as mango is concerned. I sure as hell hope anons are backing up the shit they like and are not just relying on online readers. Since its pretty obvious with the panda going down, that hiding your stuff behind accounts and even convoluted account age/point systems did jack shit.
