It has been two and a half weeks since MangaDex was hit with a DDoS. The initial DDoS didn’t last for too long, but it caused Cloudflare to begin throttling its free tier of service to us. To be fair, it is quite surprising that we lasted so long on their free tier considering that we pushed...

Update on CF Situation: Cloudflare ended its maintenance of its billing system on the 8th, last Friday. Unfortunately, there are still issues with @Holo's account. He had attempted to pay several times over the course of the downtime, never with any success. This apparently has caused issues...

Update: So Cloudflare has extended their maintenance until February the 8th. @Holo currently has a ticket open with their customer service, but who knows when they'll reply? In the meantime, we've come up with some workarounds. Service should be restored nearly to pre-DDoS speeds for older...

I know everyone has been pretty despondent about the state of MangaDex for the last couple of days. But brighter days are ahead! We can reveal that we have pinpointed the issue. Following our growth over the Christmas period, it appears that our bandwidth usage has exceeded the acceptable...

It's been a wild ride, folks! It's a bit hard to believe that MangaDex has been around for a whole year but we're still here and still growing! Despite the many challenges we've seen that comes with a site that is exploding in popularity, we've always been able to rise to the occasion. It's all...

We've been tossing around the idea of opening up a merch store for months now and we decided that our first anniversary is a great way to float the idea to the community since our current Mega Anniversary Contest features t shirt designs! While we do have big plans for a system where supporters...

It has recently come to staff’s attention that some scanlator groups have been receiving some very nasty emails and death threats due to group delays on MangaDex. Group delays serve several purposes. They can, for example, be used to ensure that the group's site receives traffic (which in turn...

Welcome everyone, to our second interview! I know both on the forums and on our Discord I said we'd be doing bi-weekly interviews, but I was so blown away by the positive feedback and the interactions between scanlators and readers that I decided to get this interview out a week early since it...
