On my fire tablet I like to read Manga and use tachiyomi but afaik it doesn’t seem to actually download the files of the Manga, only the Manga to read if offline I think?

    Komga is a server app that manages comics and manga and makes them available via a web interface, has multi user management and multiple library support with read tracking and such… think Plex for Manga.

    I access it from my Phone and my Boox e-ink Tablet and if I use the webui it tracks where I’ve read up to between devices.

        Or use the komga add on for tachiyomi to download the series and read off-line. I’ve never had to do that as I’ve never not had internet on my devices

          just remembered this thread and i looked into komga a bit. So it takes your cbz files etc and lets you read them where theres internet…but how do you download manga without dealing with api limits like tachiyomi plugins have?

            That’s what FMD does. I give it a list of series to follow and the preferred source for them and it just downloads the lot as fast as it can and checks for updates regularly.

            It’s kind of like sonarr for manga and comics.
