Following their earlier demands to remove Mangadex extensions, Kakao now threatens to sue Tachiyomi developers (and also everyone who forked Tachiyomi). Let's discuss this exciting happening.

So when can I bust out the torches and pitchforks?

Ideally yesterday. Or a few weeks ago. Kakao's HQ needs to be burned the fuck down. Honestly, though, the day Tachi started allowing manhwa extensions was when it all kinda went to shit.

I think now's a good time. The tachiyomi team has announced they're stopping all development

[–] vvvvv@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Is there any official response from Tachiyomi developers?

They've removed extensions by default, so Kakao has no legal ground anymore, and now extensions are third party. They also mostly locked down the discord I believe to make it harder to doxx them.
