With the Death of Bato and likely more shit dying our friends @le and former Staff member Symedia Has made detailed instructions on what you should do for alternatives or if you dont feel like doing all of that he linked a website The best method is to use a dedicated reader app on your phone, like Mihon (a community-developed successor to Tachiyomi) for Android. These apps act as a central library, pulling manga from various online sources into a single, clean, ad-free interface. This is a far superior experience.

Instead, use these community-curated wikis and indexes to find currently active and reliable sources to use within an app like Mihon.

I was sourcing between mangadex, weebcentral, comick, and batoto for most things with the odd entry from translator sites and I'm still not done migrating comick entries from my library. Weeb seems to have rips from official translations so I'm not counting on it sticking around if it doesn't become like md and have a bunch of empty series. I might have to look into self download and hosting like I have for movies and music.
