My perspective on Tapas being shut down

[drewdoniger]

It's not the first place I've posted my comic too, and it won't be the last (besides, I already use most of the other ones already)

And I think most of y'all would agree

This is the first and the only place I've ever posted my stories. When I started writing, it was recommended by a friend who was already posting here. So, maybe for me, this is a different experience than for folks with accounts on numerous platforms & who've been doing so for years. Sometimes, I just think this is "quits".

I was mostly on Tapas for the forum and as a reader.
My personal project will come out traditionally printed.

So, does anyone know the last day before it goes offline? Because, I truly feel betrayed. If they really go through with, they should reimburse at least half of all the inks and coins we paid for those lifetime-access-to episodes. They have our history, they can calculate.

No one knows, not even Tapas staff:

This is the third spot I've had to move my comic from so far. First was MangaMagazine/ Inkblazers, Smackjeeves, and now Tapas. These places will always come and go, but it's always a sad day for webcomics when big sites like this one go

While I haven't posted a comic here in ages, I'm gonna miss the forums. I have a lot of useful advice from here bookmarked, that I won't be able to access when the site is gone

@ButterflyEmpress

I know right. I especially found this thread helpful https://forums.tapas.io/t/medical-advice-for-your-writing-found-here/64150
I will forever miss that thread.

Though I'm sure the information will still be out there, but the OP was helpful in identifying what people wanted to write about. Sigh.

I'm in the process of rereading it again.
