Good.

I'll even disable adblock on PC, see how that goes.
I already see all the ads on the tablet, where I do most of manga-reading.

Desktop has been without an ad provider for several weeks now, hopefully someone steps up and buys an ad.
I can't as I clicked GET STARTED on the ad page and it does nothing, just opens a new tab.:lol:

We’re introducing a bit of non-intrusive advertising to help cover operational costs, working only with carefully chosen partners.
Supporters, as always, get to enjoy things ad-free.
Once our expenses are covered, the ads will take a little vacation (hopefully for a long while).

Thanks for helping us keep the lights on (and the servers happy)! :salute:



2025-10-05: We didn't expect the ad banners to get displayed the way they did (they're comically big due to us testing with smaller placeholder banners), and we're working on a rework to make the ads be less annoying in general.

I'm a bit technologically challenged so maybe Im just missing something or doing something wrong but I have an ad blocker and am still seeing ads. Why is that? Its kinda annoying is all.

Because is just an image with a link, is not like the ads that you see in other websites that are inserted with a script from a third party platform and they dictate what to show in the website, ad blockers don't see a difference to something like your pfp with a link to your profile

I'm confused. Is that ad fake or real? I got interested, clicked on the banner and got on page with download button, but everything is just single big image with nothing there.:nyoron:

NON INTRUSIVE HUH. TOP OF THE UPDATES PAGE. TAKES UP HALF THE DAMN SCREEN.
Just opened the website in a browser without uBlock and good lord lmao, you're right. Calling it non-intrusive with that size and placement is taking the fucking piss a bit.

Not sure if this was already said, but any advertisement will be seen as income by publishers, regardless of what you say the funds will be used for, and gives them the justification to stop looking the other way and come after the site. This site was already big and popular enough to come after with that mass DMCA not too long ago, so they already have eyes on the site. You're just giving them another reason to come after the site yet again.
