Just a heads up, searching for new manga via Mangadex on Tachiyomi not working anymore, as well as updating manga chapters if sourced from mangadex. But the mobile version of the site is good so there's that. thanks for creating and improving this site

So yeah it's great that things are moving forward but like shernjr said for an app like Tachiyomi that does guest search there's a lot of mangas with issues, new and old chapters are throwing Error 500/502/503. I hope we can get the guest search back at some point soon, I don't wanna move my whole library somewhere else. Mainly because there's no other site with such a huge collection of manga 😅

I don't know if it's just me, but everything has actually gotten much slower since this afternoon. Not as bad as when the DDoS first started, but much worse than the last couple of weeks. I actually had to resubmit this post a few times before it would take, and have started getting 502 errors.

I am genuinely curious as to who is DDoSing the website, and how. For them to have been doing it for so long, unless they have/own their own botnet, they must be spending some serious cash. Though if I may speculate, if it is from another manga aggregate website, and this is just pure speculation, I wouldn't be surprised if many users from said site either had their computers infected in some sort of way to participate in such a botnet attack (like through all of the ads that are displayed on a website that can easily be exploited for people who don't run AV software or ad blocking plugins in browsers), or the website itself has something built into it so that end users' computers could participate in a botnet attack.

If it's just as easy for someone (a hacker) to get an end user's computer to mine crypto just by visiting a website (compromised or otherwise) and keeping that website open all the time, then it sure as hell would be easy to set up a website to help participate in a botnet attack. I mean, seriously, how many people who use computers are actually tech savvy enough to know when their CPU utilization is tapped out?

Idk, just my two cents. I'm still glad to hear the news, though! I've def noticed a difference in speed, even with the plugins I use in Waterfox.

@seekermoc I wouldn't say that it's slower, but more like the DDoS is affecting the servers enough that that would happen. Everything responds quite fast, and most times when the website 502's on me, or I get a d/c, once I can get back in, it's quick loading. This is just unfortunate residual due to the DDoS.

The DDoS is sporadic. Cloudflare attack mode is turned on when the attack is ongoing.

If it was the case that guest have too much access then you could disable everything apart from one preview chapter for every manga and if people want to read more make them make an account.

I feel like i'm getting a noticeable amount of 503 Errors at the end of chapters.
Something like every.... 6? or so chapters I would get one and have to refresh, go through cloudfare's DDoS protection and then continue.
Is this gonna be a thing from here on after the upgrade or is it only throughout the moments when "these people" are DDoSing the site?

It doesn't particularly bother me much, but just thought I should put it out there, just in case.

The identity of the perpetrator of the DDoS attack is plain as day. It can be nobody but Daiz!
