This message has been posted on their discord server yesterday, currently the app is being worked on and has no definitive ETA. We probably have to use other forks until that. I don't know whether I can share the discord server's link so not sharing that until a mod gives heads up.

Why did you post a screenshot instead of posting/quoting the text?

Text would have been more accessible and more discoverable.

I thought having the screenshot would be more authentic. I would have added Alt text if Lemmy supported that.

I'm a little dumb and late to this so please forgive me if this is not a good question, but can you not develop an app under a pseudonym or any other way to protect your identity or was this like they tracked each dev down, got their info and legally threatened them?

Edit: I'm referring to Tachiyomi I forgot to mention that

It's not copyright infringement, so you can just tell them to fuck off and make them sue you. If they submit DMCA, you (and because it's open source, that means anyone, today) can counterclaim and it will get put back up until they actually go to court.

It's just a lot to deal with harassment from a motivated company's resources.

But is there a way to have it on iOS? Maybe a web app like wefwef/Voyager?
