rip ppl that used the mobile site to reach the forums...
Well...shit.
Smackjeeves...congratulations. You're now only the 2nd worst webcomic website redesign.
I think I saw Michael said something about that full site on mobile was removed.
But I’m on mobile web and reading stuff. Not forced to app. (iPhone safari)
Same, I can access the full site on my Android phone (chrome browser) and no attempts of redirecting me to the app so far. Sucks if this will be the case at some point D:
@michaelson Can you elaborate on the full site on mobile confusion, please? 
On Android, one out of 3 browsers I tried makes it possible. Before, it was 3 out of 3.
Thank you for the info, that what made me try the other browsers :). Still, it's more and more difficult.
Redirecting SHOULD BE A CHOICE!
Sorry, one more thing to bring back.
The preview when you share on other platforms.
Right now it shares the icon, people will not understand it's a new page.
Also the function to crop a preview is still up for creators, it just does not appear when you share.
Thank you guys 
Agreed! I know I’m one of the few but I always use the full site for all the websites I go to on my phone- it allows me to be in control of all of the benifits of the full site so I’m not lacking in communication or updates that would normally go under the radar with mobile versions.
We're reintegrating the "FULL SITE" function back to the mobile web experience for creators that want to publish using the mobile website. The current mobile web does not the "FULL SITE" functionality and is mirroring the main web's homepage but doesn't include our publishing tool. Does that answer the question?
I'll still be answering questions, just getting slightly overwhelmed by the number of responses that need to be addressed.
That's something I have definitely considered too, but that still begs the question about why he can't answer the question. Like if it's tech/time reasons, why not just say that?
I definitely don't expect the site to roll back and we just have to move forward with what we've got. At this point, at least we are at a point where we know they are at a minimum pretending to care, which is more than what other sites have done.
I definitely don't want to conspire on this anymore either. 
At this point, best thing we can do is the wait and see approach.
Okay, that is definitely NOT good, given the mature content apocalypse caused by Apple. >___________>
And um, isn't the purpose of the update to match the website to the mobile version and apps? What's the point then?
Yep! I don't get it, more and more people don't have computer anymore and do everything by mobile, but more and more often, people are forced into dumbed down, censored apps, and no one seems to care. (Yes, I know, this is going much more far than the Tapas issue. But Tapas is a good example).
Yeah, that's what I thought the redesign was for (and did terribly, since the mobile website is iffy, namely with loading). To bridge mobile and desktop, even though the two were completely fine as they were.
It's looking more and more like this was thought up and coded by investors instead to piss us off.
We'll definitely take this into consideration. We've done some creator newsletter related polls and we might integrate those more into our messaging. Thanks for the suggestion.
No. That's not the case.
We are working on that fix currently.
We are rolling them out gradually and will keep this topic updated.
Part of the fix has been shipped.
We are bringing back infinite scroll, it's part of our hot fix in the parent post.
We hope to address this in a future build, we are tinkering with some ideas currently.
I hate how much of a pain it is to just read a new page on desktop now. Before, I could just refresh my library, click on what was new, and be taken right there to the new page. Now I have to click on the comic, scroll and find the start of new pages, and hit that. Or hit continue, and then hit Next. Its supposed to be better design to have FEWER clicks to do the same thing as before, not more. And the huge amount of white space sometimes keeps me from realizing a new page has even loaded. Not to mention having to fiddle around to get that awful black bar to appear or disappear.
I've already seen several creators announce they are ditching or stopping updates. I don't want to have to start using Webtoon; its ugly and not easy to use.
You can't use Tapas on a mobile browser anymore? That's kind of upsetting, I use that to show my comic to people IRL quickly and opening the whole app takes a lot more time.
No - so the mobile browser or mobile web is operational in terms of reading but publishing a story has not been updated.
I have an android and some sites force me to do that, I wonder if they are site related or the smartphone just tries to be smart and make you use the app. For example when I force chrome to show me the desktop version of patreon on my samsung, some parts of the site will try to force you to either open with the app or a different browser (which will go mobile mode).
I don't know if this works with tapas specifically, but when it pulls the "wanna open this in the app?" Or just automatically takes you to the app, I copy the link and open in a different window. For whatever reason, chrome behaves differently then.
I haven't attempted reading on chrome on the phone though. I use the desktop version on my phone to check my earnings and access episode editing when I'm on the go.
That's good to know. I'd not be surprised if there is an interaction website/browser as I found one that does not redirect (the Samsung default one)
But it got worse with last update. Before, I could use 'open in new tab'. Now, this only open the comic icon.
I think the issue could be resolved by having redirection as an option. I can get how some people like it, so having it as an option would make sense.
@michaelson are there plans to give new authors more stage time I guess you could call it like I suggested above?
That's weird.
I have that issue since a few months (never before). I already tried to reinstall the app.
The only thing that works (obviously) is to remove the app.
Where ca i find the revert button for new design???? I hate it. Why i need to search for a chapers list button all over the screen and then click it every time i need to see the list?
Personal gripe to add since uhh.. seemingly no one else likes the inclusion of music in comics or novels.. but we have the option to play the song and the option to mute it. I like the fact that it is tied to just one button which is a simple musical note, however there's no way for a reader to find the song itself like there was back then: through a link appearing above the episodes. I personally found a lot of enjoyable music back then (notably from Leftovers) thanks to this feature so..
I think it'd be neat if the songs used from Soundcloud would be included at the very bottom of the description for an episode, or like at the very least in the menu next to the share button. I dunno if that's like.. by intentional design or if that's just an oversight, but I do kinda see it as a downgrade from how the feature was before tbh
The new site makes it much harder to navigate - more clicks and the support button is no longer visible on the opening page. Why did you make it more difficult for readers to support comics? (I'm a reader, not an artist.)
When I go to a comic, there is nearly as much space for links to other comics as the comic I am there to read.
If the goal was to improve aesthetics, you have failed.
Agreed. The scrolling function on webtoons takes away from the "feel" of a page of a comic as part of an integrated whole. The
The chapter update icon no longer shows how many new chapters there are. There is now just a yellow dot. Also I can't sort all comics of a certain genre by date now. That was the way I used to find new content.
Hi! This is my first time on the forum, so, hello everyone (please be patient with my bad english XD)
I just really don't like this update: for the new layout "mobile style", for the missing features and also because the website is slow, really slow.
Just a couple of things about the "all comics" section.
When you browse the comics by genre/all there is no more way to sort them by alphabet/date/subscribers/likes. The comics are sorted from the "last published" to the old one, missing other ways to sort them like in the old website, please restore them.
The continuos scroll is the worst option for this section. There are more than 60.000 series on Tapas and scroll down -maybe until you die- just to find a new comic it's crazy.
The old "pages browsing view" is a better way to display all the comics: if my connection is not so fast, I don't need to load all the comic thumbails; if I lost the conncetion, with the infinite scroll down I must start from the beginning, but with the "pages browsing view" I can start from the page where I was.
If you scroll until the end of the page (yes I did it in the BL section), as other user report, there is a bug where the comics thumbnails overlappings and you can't see all the other comics.
Here a couple of screenshots

Thanks for what you do for the community! <3
Here. Let’s have some positive vibes.
Let's enjoy the good thing that happens right now on the Tapas redesign.
From mobile perspective at the mobile web the popup menu is running smoother and not flashing in your face. Still glitchy at the top 
But it is way better and feels more like using the app.
in the dashboard when you take a preview of your next episode, there are no heavy loading time.
your library list can be sorted in comics/novels
In the question about Webtoon had brought Tapas:
i can't read everything but i just did a double check and the Subscribe option is still right next to the Report one.
@michaelson PLEASE keep those two buttons as far away from each other as you possibly can. Right now you're just asking for accidents to happen 
( or giving salty readers some bad ideas, lolll) Especially on app/mobile. So easy to click the wrong things!
They're definitely working on it but with all the other issues to fix too it might take some time. There workers aren't machines. They need breaks too and are most likely already overtime on fixing the biggest issues and bugs. Michael has said that they will move the subscribe button
When you click report it doesn't automatically send a message, it opens up a separate menu first.
The button to send a report is also greyed out until you actually select anything, so I don't think it would be possible to send a report by accident
@michaelson I am on a pc and am having problems with the publishing. It is asking for me to upload a file instead of the text box it usually lets me type in. I tried to open my files and it only shows picture files. My other novel will let me add text, but the newest one will not.
