Will the site become actually decent in future?

Can you elaborate on what it is you're asking for? Artist names already link to the artist page (as do most elements on the site), and advanced search can be accessed by selecting the search bar and either hitting Enter or clicking the spyglass. I don't know what you mean by "non-tag categories," but Doujin, Games, Manga and Tags can all be found in the topbar, with Magazines shown under New Releases.

There are currently over 1600 artists on the site, so I don't see how scrolling through a big list would be particularly useful. Browsing galleries and then exploring the artist sounds like a better way to discover new content you like, and obviously if you're looking for a certain artist, the search is much more efficient. I could see us making it a dedicated menu item if we were to add extra functionality to the page, like sorting or a search, but until then it can be accessed through two clicks—click any artist name, then the Artist link at the top of the page.


This I 100% agree with. It's actually something I brought up the other week, and that page will get a revamp into something more useful.


If you read any content and click on "XX|XX Jump to Page" at the bottom of the page, the reader changes to a slideshow view. If the chapter is part of a bigger piece of content (like a book), you also get a list of the individual chapters above the page view. This way you can quickly skim through while still being able to make out what's on each page, but a grid view with even smaller previews could be a nice option to add.

I will not resub until we can see tags on the artists page again. While a "minor" thing, it was also the feature I used the most on the site. I read an doujin I like, I like the artists art-style, so I click on their name, look at what other stuff within the same type of tags\content they made, and then look at those too. With removal of tags on the artist page, this has become an absolute hazzle, having to click into each and every one, rather than just look at the overview.

Taking away QoL features that were already there is a big no-no, and a good way to bleed subscribers, especially since it's been 8 months with no resolution. Hell, the very first comment\feedback post on the new UI design was THIS . Not to mention the old artists view-page was superior in every-way for how most users used it, which is to find similar type of content to what they clicked on it for in the first place!

There technically is an advanced search (I forget the URL), but nothing actually links to it. No idea why they haven't added a link to it yet. I also can't wrap my head around how ridiculously difficult it is to get them to add tags, even if you provide examples as per the instructions in their tag request thread.

This was already answered in the first reply. I've also added these instructions to the subscription FAQ.

You are absolutely right, I stand corrected.
