Why a vague start time? I think you should change the block announcement (above the top chapters) from "a short period " to three days. To me short is an hour or two at most.

Is there a way to get some technical insight about how MangaDex's infrastructure has evolved. At which limit the admins decided to restructure their network and some other numbers and how they restructured the new system?

 

[Plykiya]

@foxtrot22 simple webserver + image server, extremely slow
to webserver + dedicated db server + image server when the site was slowing down on basic browsing
to webserver + dedicated db master server + db slaves + image server to fight against ddos
to webserver + dedicated db master server + db slaves/image archive servers + main image server because one image server couldn't handle the amount of connections being made

we make upgrades like every additional two million visitors I guess. currently at 11 million

You say that like it's a bad thing

 

[Karmichel]

[melonpan]

guess is time to move to Kissmanga u.u

 

[Samhill]

@melonpan It's only three days. No need to do anything drastic.

Thing like this and also others (MD turn official possibility, surge of english manga publishers and also DMCAs resulting in site's death) is what makes you to start reconsidering learning the language itself from now.

Anyway, 3 days of no MD doesn't make any difference at all to me; I mean, most manga these days follow the same template anyway like school battle harem shit, over-saturated isekai garbage, self-insert harem MC and you name it.

Thanks for the update! I won't be surprised now if I can't access the site.

 

[Serenata]

We'll all migrate to hitomi then... lo/ ok ... Guess I'll work- pffft who am I kidding? time to finish some pending games in my harddrive!

 

[Tenri]

Guess I'll hibernate for a few days.
Joking, joking. I've got a lot of light novels to catch up on so I'll be alright.

 

[junonlee3]
