Tachiyomi forks

Extensions:
Follow instructions for your fork
https://keiyoushi.github.io/extensions/

Note: Reinstall all previous extensions, otherwise update won’t be possible.

How to migrate from Tachiyomi to a fork:

  • On Tachiyomi: Settings -> Data and Storage -> Create Backup
  • On the fork: same steps, select “Restore backup”

Standalone apps

PS: I’ll update the list if find more.

    Hrm… Ya know, you’d think the extensions would move off of GitHub after everything…

      Probably, GitHub isn’t a good place for this type of projects. youtube-dl, CloudStream both got nuked in the past with DMCA

        Gitlab/gitea might be better. GH is getting more and more DMCAed.

          Im not git savvy, so:

          1. will there be any difficulties moving to another Repo website? 1a: if the difficulty is easy-intermediate, why aren’t the developers making the move off github?

            It’s harder for other devs to discover your project when you use the other Git forges (e.g. Gitlab).

              Arguably a positive in cases like this.

                Probably not wrong. But it’s a double edged sword, if Tachiyomi wasn’t hosted on Github it’s likely that it wouldn’t have gotten this far.

    Heads up to everyone, Mangayomi asks for “all files access” in Android, which is generally only reserved for default systems apps. And it keeps asking for it even if you say no and ignore the popup.

    Neither Tachiyomi nor any other app has asked me this before. I’m going to caution against using Mangayomi due to this sketchy behavior from them.

      Tachiyomi used to have that, but nowadays it only asks for access to one folder and does all its business in there.

        They must have been many years ago because I’ve been on there since before covid and I don’t remember that

    Was recommended Dantotsu

    Relies on an anilist account, and can be used for both anime and manga.

    I’m trying to decide between Dantotsu , mangayomi and kotatsu right now.

    The standalone list doesn’t mention it, but Neko can import the Tachiyomi backup, though only the Mangadex manga of course. It’s also actually a Tachiyomi fork and was endorsed by them until Kakao struck AFAIK. Figured it was good to mention.

      Tanks, i don’t really read anime, only comics and didn’t test that. I’ll add it later.

    I’m not really in the loop about Tachiyomi, except that I use it occasionally so can you explain to me the reason behind this post? Is something wrong with Tachiyomi, what are the benefits of switching to alternatives/forks here?

    Just wondering if the Mandadex and Bato.to extensions work on these forks? Since this whole thing started off with those two getting delisted from Tachi.

    This sucks. Fucking corpo greed, but I understand, no one small group could fight a conglomerate and prolly would have done the same as described. Best of luck to them.
