I come here to check stuff out and sometimes discover things but I buy the stuff I like (not out of guilt for piracy, I want more of it!) and mainly read/keep up with the official release. I come on here to be nosy and yap.
Most apps have also pretty good deals to unlock chapters too, also good if someday a site just suddenly goes out. I try finding the novel too so ykno i don't lose everything. Official apps are like the backup lol.
Not out of guilt, and not with the plan to not read, but I do have some series I’ve bought and haven’t finished reading as well as some I bought and dropped
I buy the chapters on official sites even if I don’t read them, cause I feel guilty for pirating & often times the chapters here come out earlier than officials. (only when it comes to manhwas / manga.) i’m afraid someday stories will be full of AI
