Its not April 1st so whats up with this comments changes?

Not when you can't open the comment button to lead you to forum.
not until there are a lot of comment already so it display "Read ... older comments"

Well, that's one way to make both sides coexist.
I saw some people talking about some 'testing' before they released it, didn't they saw that coming ?

How can there be a premium comments section if my comments aren't there?

I really dont like this separate comment/forum direction. There isn't so much interaction with smaller mangas and now separating it even more isn`t going to help it. Showing the last 3 forum comments in the new side bar would be fine, but the current system is a trajectory I really don`t like.

And that it looks like only supporters can even access it while it is still shoved down everybodies throat isn`t making me like it more. I support Mangadex so that other who don't have the funds (like younger me) can still enjoy this for free. I really hope we supporters do NOT get special treatment and MD does not go down the enshittification route.

It took me some time getting used to using the MangaDex forums to "comment" VS the comments section in most sites.

I grew to love the forums. It encourages longer dialogue and makes it a ton easier (or at least possible) to post images and other stuff.

This new update encouraging "comments" is a bad move.

How can we co-exist if we non-supporter plebs can't even reply to the Supporter comments? 😅

It's been communicated poorly, but the "supporters only" thing here is a temporary testing period. When its ready for a full release, everyone will be able to use the new comment system.

I still think that this new system sucks, but its important to keep this information in mind, especially if you want the mods to take your feedback seriously.
