the Site seems to be asking for donations. Many manga Pages have there custom reader for their Manga. Why not introduce a custom Sponsor Button for each Manga. the Site can take a cut the Translators Are getting paid. More stuff would be published here and Not on Websites that Are flooded with ads and Night be dead in half a year.

It may sound crazy for you, but MangaDex has existed for seven years by donations (and all the money is invested in making the webpage operative, it's a non-profit-making one). Leaving aside what you may understand by "translators", you're asking for the page to go against the reason why it exists. This would be the perfect honeytrap though.

MangaDex operates under a pretty specific model: it’s non-profit and community-driven, and it avoids monetizing fan translations to steer clear of legal issues with publishers and rights holders. Introducing direct payments tied to content, even with a cut going to the site, could potentially put the whole platform at risk of takedown or lawsuits. That’s why MD has stuck with donations and kept things ad-free and user-supported. It helps them stay around long-term without stepping into legally grey areas.

Hi, as many have previously mentioned, this would fundamentally go against our core mission and will expose us to significant legal risks.
