Kotatsu's missing comic server's or being down

kammleyy commented 1 month ago

Brief summary

Been using the app for almost a good minute. Where I was having a great time reading actual comics like batman, wolverine, daredevil etc, and then one day, don't know if the update or me (just out of speculation), the pages from the comics i was reading, comic servers were filled with errors with no chapters and I thought it was the captcha verification, but no images showed up nor the actual website of that server, but it had all other 'MANGA' to be there for the server's and chapters still be open to read.

isn't this an issue with the specific source?

Please share what comic on what source you're looking at, as well as the details of the error you're seeing. If you navigate to the same source via your normal browser, is the comic present there? (if so, at what url?)

I'm not sure it's the same issue as yours but I recently installed the app after a long time not using it. I could only find 2 or 3 sources for comics (English) everything else is manga

I don't think it's the same issue. Regarding your issue: Ultimately Kotatsu is a community driven project and features only exist if there was a person out there that took their time and implemented said features. So:

if what you're looking for just doesn't exist (ie critical sources are not supported) then your best bet is to try and support them yourself. In this case it really only requires basic html knowledge and basic programming skills, AI will get you the rest of the way probably
if what you're looking for does exist but is dysfunctional then you should open a separate 'issue' with as many details as possible
