I want to touch my lists so badly because I NEED to know when chapters are being updated instead of relying on the featured mangas, but I’m too scared to organise them after being told not to touch our Reading and Want to read lists #-.-)
Someone referred this post to me which should help answer your questions, but just out of caution even if it’s true or not I decided not to organise my reads just yet https://www.mangago.me/home/mangatopic/21212683/?page=3
I’ve been seeing people say that they shouldn’t touch the lists because they’re gonna comeback eventually and it’ll be a waste of time if you want to sort them out again, but like I’m worried that if I rebuild my Reading and Want to read lists it’ll glitch again or something? Anyone else get me?

Lists are *not* coming back but still don't touch them because the site is still being fixed
Ahh okay thanks for letting me know!! This is actually super helpful because I already knew about the ones I didn’t tag/rate won’t come back, I was just waiting for the O.K for when we can finally fix our lists. Thank god I haven’t touched my lists yet. Looks like we have to wait for a few more months then
Guys I think I lowkey cooked - I just realised I could TRY to revive some of my ‘Reading’, and ‘Want to read’ lists, so I have some tips I want to share!! For the people who are desperate like me
1. Go to your profile and see if you’re FOLLOWING other users created lists- I literally just realised I’m following a few already, as well as some lists I’ve made myself back in 2021 to 2022?? I totally forgot about this tbh until I went through my profile
2. Check out your photo albums!! See if the manga/manwhas etc you were reading were on your ‘Currently Reading’ list.
Thats all I have atm, please feel free to share some other tips with us desperate folks - Also I’m not too sure if we’re allowed to actually touch our Reading and Want to read lists JUST YET! Personally, I don’t want to take that risk. So idk, I guess list them down in your notes for now ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
I already sent my reply too and the OP deleted their post lmaooo anyway that's nice ! me personally, I already wrote down my current reads, already reads and some of my want to read lists beforehand, so I just put all of those titles in my second account first, in case they're going to be back in this main acc of mine lol (it's been few days and only 5% of them came back). but I think I'm gonna give them a weeks or month, if they're gone forever, I'll just add all my stuffs back manually
Here it goes again
For ongoing stories you may have lost, go to the genre section. Select the genre and put "sort by: update". You can go back as many pages as needed and definitely find them
For miscellaneous mangas use the tag section. Just write any characteristic specific to the stories you usually read. "Animal characteristics", "office romance", "cooking", "disability", "pink hair". Anything goes, the more specific the better. The tag section is automatically sorted by popularity so keep that in mind
And talking about lists. If you ran out of ideas to find stories (or dont want to check 200 pages under a tag), check the lists that the stories are added on.
Lets say you searched "found family" and have too many pages to go through. Click on a story, click on a list that is specifically of stories with that plot. Now sort the list by "unread" and check from there
Is still a pain but you'll have to check max of 20 pages instead of 200
I’m going insane why are there so many new gross ass straight manwhas on the FEATURED PAGE get that shit off omg
That's what I'm thinkinggg, (yapping session incoming...) why do stories with a male mc all have stereotypically loser MCs? Both smut and not smut. Is it for self-insert? As a woman, when I'm reading something with a female character I personally prefer her to be beautiful and badass, who cares about self-insert? Like, isn't it much better to identify with a main character who's cooler than you are irl? The only ones with a cool male lead are usually the ones with women in the target audience lmao
I know right? I'm so tired of seeing them. From what I understood the featured page works in a way that the stories with the most ENGAGEMENT get featured, which can be either positive or negative, so the more people comment on these stories to insult them the more they are going to appear unfortunately :/

Yes I’m aware of only the rated ones will recover! But I’ve been told not to touch our Reading and Want to read list because it affects the devs/moderators(?) process and that the site is still being fixed? “its just the mass editing + especially with the higher traffic on the site that may cause issues for the developer team.” Is what they said! But I’ve given up on relying on the featured page mangas to see if they’ve been updated What do yall think? Also want to add I haven’t touched my lists AT ALL ╥﹏╥
I say roll the dice and start adding, but this time keep a list of what you have. I didn't wait long after the crash/glitch when I started rebuilding my lists; while I did pause it briefly, just in case, I luckily haven't seen any major changes in my numbers that will make me stop rebuilding.
I personally wouldn't and would just see my updated through reading history. Or add stuff to custom lists. I'm not Xander so I can't speak on the more technical stuff, but I've seen a few glitches pop up in the past weeks from other people.
The site seems more stable now, so if you do decide to, just make sure you do what PmChivas said and make a backup list somewhere else. Check all your entries are going through properly. (I wouldn't, but hey, I can't stop you)
A few entries for notifications shouldn't cause too many issues imo. Then again, I'm not a computer person.
I get it though, my only notifications only being comment response notifications about the site stuff is lowk driving me insane. And it's been a whole month. On this site. Daily. Not even reading ┗( T﹏T )┛
Back your lists up in case
I recommend this data scrubber by Gurl
