One of the maintainers is taking over and will update here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mihonapp/ and https://twitter.com/mihonapp

The standalone list doesn't mention it, but Neko can import the Tachiyomi backup, though only the Mangadex manga of course. It's also actually a Tachiyomi fork and was endorsed by them until Kakao struck AFAIK. Figured it was good to mention.
Tanks, i don't really read anime, only comics and didn't test that. I'll add it later.
I'm trying to decide between Dantotsu , mangayomi and kotatsu right now.
I'm not really in the loop about Tachiyomi, except that I use it occasionally so can you explain to me the reason behind this post? Is something wrong with Tachiyomi, what are the benefits of switching to alternatives/forks here?

TLDR: a stupid Korean company sent a cease and desist to the Tachiyomi devs, they caved in and are ending the project
did something happen to tachiyomi that I'm unaware of?
edit: it's not getting developed by the original devs anymore https://tachiyomi.org/news/2024-01-13-goodbye
I've setup the original Tachiyomi with the third-party repo so I can add new sources to J2K for now. Screw Caca-o entertainment.
That said, I've never heard of manwa before. I'm torn between deliberately pirating their work just to spite them, and not ever wanting to do anything with any of their works in any capacity, ever. I want the most efficient way possible to make them cry so I can drink their salty tears
I am still using it for webtoons. How affected am I? Is this affecting only extenstions with manga?
The app and extensions will continue to work but won't be update, if something breaks won't be fixed.
Worth mentioning: Anyone using TachiyomiJ2K (I use it for Surface Duo dual-screen support) or another fork with support who has some self-hosting prowess, there's always Suwayomi - It will let you "migrate" to a third-party sources repo even if your app doesn't support it, since it becomes your device's only local extension.
