Hey!
Something else here.
I just want to thank the team for making this little pr-loading logo.
I was so ignored when reading and I thought that the comic just had some white space and I needed to scroll some more to read. Then the white space was just image loading and I miss the previous image.
Now whit this little logo I know something is loading.
Thank you
Seems logic. Now that the ads insnt the reason to not do it.
Only reason to only have the the comments in the bar is??????
You know. Before we go conspiration again. Let’s just all pretend that we all are beta tester and the dev want to see what happens with different stuff.
To me it makes sense for novels, especially the ones with longer chapters, because sometimes as you read you really want to say something, but when you finally reach the bottom of the page you forgot, or it doesn't feel relevant anymore.
In that context it would be cool if there was some sort of marker for where the reader was when they wrote the comment, like Soundcloud has.
Oh, I do think it makes sense to have an option to have the comments in a sidebar. That would be a very nice feature if it weren't the only way to see the comments. I just find it inconvenient to lose the bottom comments.
Can we just talk about the new reading format? (on the website) I personally hate it. The fact that the top bar and bottom bar take up so much space and that you cant minimize the episode menu! I hope Tapas changes it soon.
I think you can minimize the episode list now. Just double click on 'list' or double click on 'comment' on the bottom bar and it should disappear. I noticed that change today.
One thing that I don't think was mentioned that would be nice is, in the sidebar, if it was possible to collapse the comic/novel info, so it'd be easier to see all the episodes. Even when it's just a short description, only two to three episodes are visible at any one time
Definitely agree with this!
EDIT: In addition, I think people would be more likely to use the sidebar to comment when binge-reading if the sidebar can be pulled up in fullscreen mode? Right now to comment in fullscreen mode, it exits to regular mode to take you to the sidebar and that's pretty inconvenient.
Not really a fan of the update. A lot of my issues with it feel like they could be mitigate by having the options to toggle stuff on/off For example I preferred the comments at the bottom. Since I can toggle them off/on at the side it's not that big of deal until I want to comment and the box is then relegated to the right corner of the screen which seems weird to me. I guess I'd prefer at the very least if the comment box would move to the bottom if you commented at the end of a chapter but stays on the side if you comment during. I also preferred how each comic/novel had a landing page, I think that's what it's called. But now when you click on comic/novel you are direct straight to the first episode.
I know the info for the series is now on the list but I like having the landing page with the episodes and then the option if I was interest to see the description from there I would see if I wanted to check out the first episode or not. Going directly into the first episode bugs me a little. I think for one I am not used to it and then there's the fact that it feels like I am losing the option of deciding if I want to sample or try the series and I am just being pushed into sampling. I also feel like being moved to the first episode kinda skews the views slightly. If the description doesn't interest me then I don't read the first episode. This isn't so much a problem when it comes to finding something from a list. Since the description is right there. But it is sort of an issue when it comes to anything being showcased by its cover.
With the way the series info is now set up when you go to an episodes it's either constantly there which is unwelcome in my opinion or you toggle it off. While there will be people who go to the first episode and read the description before reading the episode first. There will also be people who look at the cover, click, start reading it and might realize that their first impression was wrong and that leaves a bad impression of the series. I understand that, that is a very specific scenario though.
Also having the list with multiply pages on the landing page of a series seemed simpler for me then infinite scroll. This is one of the areas were I see a lot of people applauding infinite scroll while a small group of people aren't so thrilled. Here is definitely were I would appreciate the option to choose whether I want infinite scroll or not. I don't really know if there's a way to have the site ask if you want to have it as one or the other. But asking can't hurt.
In summary I be looking out for things I like or dislike and with try to edit this later with more details.
Edit: Landing page still exist its regular form on mobile and the app. Just so I'm clear infinite scroll was always on mobile and the app right? Because it makes sense there, I'm just not a fan of it on desktop since scroll is a lot different.
If this happens, I think we would all riot again so I would strongly recommend that Tapas doesn't do that. In fact, something like this would probably be the "last straw" for me. >_>
Why do people keep bringing this up? Come ooooon. Spend two seconds to just click the "list" icon. I'm not exactly the smartest or most common sense person around here and even I was able to figure this out quickly enough. 
Hi! It's me again with complaints, sorry 
I don't recall this happening yesterday, but today when I click on a comic it takes me to the very first episode. This even happens for comics that I'm in the process of reading, including a super long one that has about 600 episodes! How am I supposed to remember where I left off!! 
Give us a bookmark at least. Or have it as before, where clicking on the comic would take us to the last page we read.
It also happens that comics that are organized to show newest episode first, when I click to open the comic it still takes me to the very first episode.
And a side note, the UI is really clumsy on my work computer, which has a smaller screen. Comments bar overlaps over the pages but there is so much extra space on the left side of the page, and the list of episodes is useless because if I scroll over it it goes past several episodes, but it only shows me one (red arrow).
I don't want to imagine how this looks on an even smaller laptop.
Edit: I know the zoom in and out browser option is a way to solve the episode list size, but it also reduces the page size and therefore the legibility. And I don't think you should have to use the zooming options in a well designed page.
Just wanted to pop in and say yay for the updates!! And also ask a question, since I don't see it in the long list of replies to this...
Multi-genre is now on which is a GREAT help, but is there any way to search or filter by multiple genres? For example: If I wanted to read something that was both Fantasy and Romance (or both Gaming and Comedy, or something like that) would I be able to do that? On the desktop when I click through the different genres it filters by only that genre.
Just asking. 
Seems like it would make this new feature more awesome.
