No they banned it because on every single fucking manga there were people going REEEEEEEEE sexualised children!!!!!!! And people were getting tired of it tbh. This wasn't a problem back before mangadex comments went down so why did everyone suddenly have this moral awakening in the last couple of years
New generation of kids who got bored during COVID19 and found this website, it got shared around, now there are normies with nothing better to do than attempt to consume a form of media they know nothing about, throwing up every 2 seconds but still slamming their head against the wall to continue reading just because it's free.
Kinda reminds me of the gacha problem, honestly. No matter how scummy the game they'll continue staying acquainted with it and giving it free publicity because it's free.
Just because something is free doesn't mean you have to torture yourself to "enjoy" it. There are other things to do, trust me. Go find other hobbies people!
