Well we’re all aware that MD has gone down the shitter in a huge way ever since the first big DMCA strike, but it’s not so easy to just ”go somewhere else”. Yes there are aggregators with a much larger selection that still don’t give a shit about piracy or monetization of someone else’s creative property, more or less like MD used to be (unofficially), but the problem is that either their infrastructure sucks, the reader sucks (partially fixable with userscripts), the comments suck or the tracker sucks. MD imo is the only one that is good on all of these aspects, but now nobody wants to upload here anymore
It’s doubly awful since every single group has splintered off to make their own websites that you need to make an account on to track and get updates, so you now have 50 different accounts and no way to keep track your reading and updates it in a good way. Yes there are some attempts at solutions, but they’re all bad in some way in my experience
I hate it because MD@Home was, in my mind, a way to circumvent these legal threats that fucked MD in the ass, since hosting would be decentralized. But alas.
MALSync is at least a great way to sync all your reading and watching to MAL and Kitsu and whatnot, but that only goes so far in the reading experience
