This sucks. Tachiyomi was by far the best app for reading comics, none of the paid options come even close in terms of options or ease of use.

It's not like it'll stop working for local files.

You could still get the actual comics anywhere, convert em to .cbz, and chuck em in some folders named by series. In that sense, Tachiyomi should keep working forever.

It's really only the streamlined online sources that'll break over time, and no new features will get added.

Lucky for us, looks like it'll be getting forked and live on as "Mihon".

So does Tachiyomi also provide the external sources? My impression was they just did the app, and you got things from elsewhere, but I've never used it (or even heard of it before today).

It's also already got 3 forks, they link them on their website.

No, tachiyomi is just a browser for other sites.
