      Kakao (hopefully) won’t get to know the real names of the developers, which will prevent them from suing the devs personally.

      They could try to DMCA claim the repo, but Tachiyomi is completely legal, so hopefully Github won’t take it down. Github previously helped youtube-dl after they got DMCA notices.

      It’s simple. Go to Tachiyomi and create a backup. Then, in Mihon, during the first setup, it should give an option to restore backup. You can also resotre backup in Mihon settings, then go to extensions and (trust) the restored extensions.

      It’s pretty much the same app at its core. So no need to change file names or formats. Everything should transfer.

    Tachij2kfriends, I saw the mihon dev post somewhere that tachij2k shouldn’t be used anymore. Is there a reason for that? Everything is still working on my end, and until it doesn’t I intend to just keep using tachij2k unless there’s a good reason not to. I also read somewhere that the Dev for j2k said he was gonna make some changes, but I wasn’t able to verify that… Anyone know anything more? Thanks

      The reason the Mihon de said that is because j2k is using an older tachiyomi base iirc. Updates on it have been on the slower side.

      It’s still being actively worked though (as far as I know) and it still works fine, so there’s no reason to switch off of it for now. If Jay does drop it then you should move onto mihon or its forks (TachiyomoSY and TachiyomiAZ will be based off of mihon in future versions).

      If it works on your end, no reason to stop using it. The reason they suggested to move elsewhere is because, at the time, there was no indication that j2k had any plans for continued development. Might’ve changed since they put that out, but that’s what they sajd

    Thanks OP, an FYI you can restore a Tachiyomi backup from Mihon to migrate straight across 👍

          During setup there will be a page that asks if you want to create or restore from backups. If you hit “restore”, it’ll ask you to point it to the backups folder inside the Tachiyomi folder. Tachiyomi has backups set up by default, but if it’s disabled you can go to the settings to create a backup

    Excellent, have been watching this.

    Warning from the release:

    Beware of any new fake versions of Mihon or Tachiyomi.

    Anyone know why the change? I’m aware that they were being targeted but I thought removing the extensions had appeased the kcorp.

      The devs just said fuckit afterwards, as you do when you get a lawsuit saying your about to be so far in debt because of your side project that your whole life will be turned up side down.

      I would have done the same.

      Kakao (or whatever they’re called) were going after everyone involved, so Tachiyomi has been deprecated, one of the devs forked it and will continue development.

        Mihon is from the tachiyomiSY devs, ick if they are the same but from a glance they are different.

          A long time Tachiyomi developer made the commits making branding changes to Mihon, so they might work together. But as they didn’t fork TachiyomiSY, its dev might continue work on it too.

            That was an unfortunate typo, I wanted to type “I don’t know if they are the same”. Sorry for the confusion.

    The extensions seem still untrusted even after reinstalling. Does it need third party extensions??

    Edit: will extensions be updated??

        What’s the difference then?

        Is it the same software, a rebrand, a publishing team change?

          It’s a fork, done by a previous Tachiyomi developer and maybe a TachiyomiSY developer too. So it’s partly a publishing team change, as the main developers are different.

          Since Mihon is exactly the same as Tachiyomi, besides changed branding and requiring Android 8+, it’s also a rebrand.

          Edit: It’s also functionally exactly the same software.
