Comixology is dead, long live comixology
Feb. 24th, 2022 07:54 amAmazon bought Comixology many years ago. This year they decided that they didn't want it to have a separate storefront anymore, there was a good enough storefront at home, so they took it out back and old yeller'd it. Unfortunately now it's gone from a reasonably organized bookstore to a Floridian fleamarket. Including the chance of an alligator attack.
With no way to sort anything, least of all by publisher, I went through the 'featured' list which had:
I'm depressed. AMA.
With no way to sort anything, least of all by publisher, I went through the 'featured' list which had:
- Stolen Scanlation manga
- Over a hundred illegally uploaded Tintins (this seemed to be the most popular stolen comic)
- Stolen hentai with titles that I think might have me on a watchlist now
- Actual regular photo porn of human ladies
- Some actual comics
- Diaper fur hero comics that wasn't stolen so I'm including it not on this list to mock it, but to praise it for going its own way.
I'm depressed. AMA.

The US webpage just tries to sell you stuff with no personalization at all. The app is just your books in alphabetical order with no filing ability. Just awful.

Some poor bastard was hanging out with me while I was hitting the .ca store to see what came out.
