Kakao in the near future, trying to handle Tachiyomi forks:
I’m assuming this one is because he’s just going to tell them to fuck off.
There’s no legal basis to take it down.
Perhaps Mihon will tell Kakao to fuck off. But if Mihon doesn’t, someone else will. [Plus I wanted an excuse to post a cute kitten .gif]
There’s no legal basis to take it down.
Even when there’s no legal basis, a corporation is better prepared to potentially lose a legal battle than a bunch of amateurs are to potentially win it. It’s a form of corporate trolling - “both of us know that you’d win if you fought, but also that you won’t fight”.
That works fine if you’re a corporation dealing with one group that dares to stand between you and the money. But it fails if used over and over, as eventually one group will say “you want a bloody legal battle mate? We’re focking getting one.”
Hilariously, I’d never heard of any of this stuff until this company decided to Streisand the fuck out of themselves.
And the best part is that they went after the container instead of the content, so all they did was make their problem even worse…
When F-Droid?
I just opened an issue to add it to IzzyOnDroid’s repo
Cut off one head of the Hydra and another two grow in its place.
Thanks OP, an FYI you can restore a Tachiyomi backup from Mihon to migrate straight across 👍
Can someone confirm this? I tried and got an error
Can anyone tell me how to do it?
During setup there will be a page that asks if you want to create or restore from backups. If you hit “restore”, it’ll ask you to point it to the backups folder inside the Tachiyomi folder. Tachiyomi has backups set up by default, but if it’s disabled you can go to the settings to create a backup
Anyone got any good extension repos? I’m more into western comics than manga
How trustworthy are those extensions? I see they are APKs.
There’s source code repo for those APK: https://github.com/keiyoushi/extensions-source
All of tachiyomi extensions are APKs since a long time ago. Previously we just trust it because it’s hosted by tachiyomi itself. So you should still worry about the trustworthiness because it’s hosted by unrelated person, but shouldn’t because it’s apk.
Maybe in the future Mihon should implement support for non-apk extensions, but for now we can only use that
Excellent, have been watching this.
Warning from the release:
Beware of any new fake versions of Mihon or Tachiyomi.
Anyone know why the change? I’m aware that they were being targeted but I thought removing the extensions had appeased the kcorp.
The devs just said fuckit afterwards, as you do when you get a lawsuit saying your about to be so far in debt because of your side project that your whole life will be turned up side down.
I would have done the same.
Kakao (or whatever they’re called) were going after everyone involved, so Tachiyomi has been deprecated, one of the devs forked it and will continue development.
When is tachiyomi expected to not function anymore?
The extensions seem still untrusted even after reinstalling. Does it need third party extensions??
Edit: will extensions be updated??
Browse> extensions>tap shield>trust
worked for me
Yes, it needs third party extensions.
What’s the difference then?
Is it the same software, a rebrand, a publishing team change?
Lawyers went after Tachi Devs, Devs abandon Tachi, new Devs forked Tachi and made Mihon.
It’s a fork.
you’re gonna wanna get off GitHub fast
Why? Nothing about the previous situation had anything to do with it being on github.
I thought this was supposed to be here: https://git.mihon.dev/mihon, without github
Probably mirror.
Maintainer is the same.
