Sucks…

tl;dr

Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed. It may continue to work for you for the foreseeable future but there will be no support for it nor the official extensions.

    SY devs have announced to develop a new app that won’t be just a tachiyomi fork.

    @everyone Update we now have a name.
Mihon (見本), Logo is being made by the same guy who made Tachiyomi's
Context: Coming to terms with the practice of 'tachiyomi' but not wanting to have all of their books flipped through, bookstores started designing books and magazines labeled ‘Mihon’ (ie. samples) for people who engage in ‘tachiyomi’.

      Yeah Mihon is the successor to Tachyomi but TachyomiSY’s dev also clarified that he’ll still be working on SY as its own thing.

        I don’t know why they want to continue working on two different things when one clearly tries to be a successor.

          I use SY and I get the sense that Bobby is more of a fast and loose type while the Mihon dev is focused more on polish. My assumptions are based on the unpolished nature of SY features and the Mihon dev saying “some of us liked plain Tachiyomi” [sic].

            I just downloaded TachiyomiSY before a week and I liked how it was better than TachiyomiSY in feature wise. I think Bobby is a dev who focuses more on features aspect. So if the other dev focuses on user interface, I hope it might be a good pair.

            Mihon dev is focused more on polish

            I was wondering what does this have to do with Polish people 😭

            more options are definitely good if the developers are different, i hope the devs aren’t burner out by developing two applications serving the same purpose.
