Bro wtf. Tachiyomi just got killed.

Is there something similar out there? I think its time to leave the sinking ship

Hope the company dies.

Found something:


More (settings) > Browse > Extension repo

Copy & paste the link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/keiyoushi/extensions/repo/index.min.json

This will help bring back most/all of the extensions. As for untrusted sites, just click it. Although, I am not sure if updates for that extension are still going to work.

For more info: https://github.com/keiyoushi/extensions/

I been using Kotaksu and so far I love it, actually some of the manga sites that went shut down on Tachiyomi are available there, for now.

Wonder if they will figure out a way to import Tachiyomi backups or series lists now…

Probably not, they explained it in the FAQ, it’s different storage formats and Tachiyomi has their own file extensions wich they can’t work with… MANUAL MIGRATION IT SEEMS…

i need a week for that… 2k Mangas to migrate :/

It would be cool if the anilist sync would be bidirectional this would solve the problem.

I wonder how reliable this workaround will be in the future. Will the external repositories be purged in the future as well? Perhaps straying away from github is a more sustainable answer.

Lol they might as well just shut down at this point. Without extensions Tachiyomi is basically a non-app.

Yes but just because they dont want to deal with the hastle doesnt mean others wont keep supporting it. Especially in the manga-space where stealing is very much an everyday occurrance

I think their strategy is fine to avoid any potential lawsuits like Paperback. But, their notice period is quite surprising.

What does this mean? Are they gonna remove all extensions just like that? We have to download the mangas now just to read them?

Yes. Tachiyomi has removed all extensions from the app. Forks like TachiJ2K are affected as well. However, you can still download and use the existing extensions. They’ve been backed up to some external repos. Just choose the new repos as the extension source and you’re good to go. But as they’re not getting fixes and such anymore, those existing extensions will only continue to work until they don’t anymore. After that, idk, maybe some new extensions will be developed by someone else, or you’ll just have to bring your own content.

I didn’t update the app and all my installed extensions work fine. What’s the MO for now? Update and re-add the extensions or just chill?

it will be better if you start moving to third party repo because those old extensions will be unmaintained by tachiyomi dev

https://github.com/KotatsuApp/Kotatsu is an option. It’s no Tachiyomi but it works.
