@SpectrumDT I've seen this happen before when I was trying to run something on an old Windows XP computer that had a Python install (I think?) with outdated support for SSL certificates, and my fix was to run my code on something a bit more modern, so I'm afraid I can't help.
Have a look at...
I put together a quick Python script to download all the chapters at once as cbz, in case anyone wants their own backup. It uses Python 2.7 and the requests library.

On desktop, so I haven't tried touch interactions yet, but I prefer the new reader by a mile. My options are: fit to container, double page, RTL, hide everything but the manga. Good work!
If only I could advance by a single page in double page mode...
Since this appears to be the relevant issue/thread, I'm linking the request I made via Twitter for a mode that fits both width and height to the viewport. Was told it'd be looked at.
Thanks for the great work!
