How many of you guys continue reading the stories that you sub/like here after a promotion thread? (Also feel free to post your comic here too)

I always try to get around to reading a few episodes a week and try to catch up if I can. I'd feel a bit guilty if I just do sub for sub or just like one or two chapters just to get the interaction.

I know a few people don't even bother subbing to other comics here and just post in all the promotion threads. Which is fine, and at least honest, but it does feel like it goes somewhat against the idea of community, since this place is one of the reasons I prefer tapas over webtoons

What is your thoughts and and habits?

I try to read, but nowadays I have less time. But I always tackle one of two chapters weekly.
I never subscribe just to subscribe. But my current health state is discouraging so I may be slow with it.

I read sometimes.

I don't sub to anything unless I plan to actually read it, because that practice is very annoying to me, lol. Also I'm allergic to unread notifications, so I generally read the updates as soon as I see them.

I'm only subbing too things I plan to read fully or the ones that I plan to try reading once more of it comes out ^v^

I alot actually but the catch is I only do the whole sub for sub stuff with stories I genuinely like and want to read. Afterwards it basically has to compete with the regular manga i read and once i finally catch up to it I read it as it updates.

If I see a promo that piques my interest I will check it out. If it passes the muster I will sub to it, but this doesn't necessarily mean that I will start reading it immediately. If it is a well established series with, say, fifty or sixty episodes already up, I will leave it until I have time to binge it. If there are only a few episodes I will catch myself up immediately. In both cases, once I am caught up I will continue to read the updates as they come.

If I sub to a series and it falls under the first scenario (where I need to binge it) I will often binge several episodes, say, a half dozen, at a time. Each time the series updates and it shows up in my notifications I will binge a few more, until I am caught up. If the series doesn't update I will usually simply forget about it.

Personally I only subscribe to series that I am genuinely interested in. In the past, I tried to sub to as many people as possible and it just didn't feel great to follow stories I don't actually care for. I wouldn't want someone to subscribe or read my series without liking it at all just cause they want me to follow theirs. That's why I stay away from sub for sub posts. As for how much I read, I'll go a few months without getting on at all and then binge a bunch of pages when I have free time.

I only sub to stuff I mean to read and even then I'm usually too busy to keep up with all of the series I'm subbed to.
