I noticed there's an option to 'show unavailable chapters' now, is that new?

Yes.

I use MAL Sync and MangaUpdates to track what I am reading.

https://malsync.moe/

https://www.mangaupdates.com/

That seems like a useful tool, but it looks like there are works (and other information) on MangaDex that are not on the other sites. I wish there was some sort of MusicBrainz-style database for manga that could serve as a single source of truth, but as far as I'm aware, that sadly doesn't exist (or at least isn't used by MangaDex).

To ensure fair access for readers and sustainable practices for translation groups, we have updated our rules on excessive profiteering to include external sites with pay-walled content and hosting of infringing material:
Groups may not promote platforms that permanently lock translated works behind a paywall or manipulate release schedules to encourage paid access.

Note: This rule (1.5) was moved to the terms (5.2.22)
