It appears the dev decided instead of shutting it down they will convert it to a manga tracker instead.

    Link in the OP is fake, please update to correct site.

    Correction: I was wrong. Comick.dev is not fake. The base Comick.io site did briefly link to comick.dev, but the link has since been removed, likely because comick.dev was throwing errors (see screenshot below).

    After looking deeper into it, here’s my understanding:

    • comick.io is and will remain the official website.
    • comick.dev is a temp site the owner set up for building and testing the new tracker version of ComicK. It will likely disappear or be archived once development is complete.
    • If your account is older than 1.5 months (the site owner was forced to remove servers with more recent data), you should be able to log in and retrieve your lists from comick.dev.
    • We’ll probably have to wait a couple of weeks for real news about the future of ComicK.
    Moderator on official subreddit shows shows the .dev site is a work in progress

    Staff on official discord says comick.io and comick.dev are official and safe

    Meotimdihia (Comick site owner) says they had to remove servers, and to wait two weeks.

          New update from the admin:

          1. Comick has become a tracking/wiki site. So don’t log in to any site where you can read manga.** If you see manga reading available, that site is fake.**
          2. The .live and .art domains are fake sites. Even though you might be able to log in, that’s my fault. These guys hacked the old Comick server when I didn’t really care about security, because Comick was just a small site and stole data. Luckily, they don’t have the Comick source code, or they can’t use it because it was the old version. So, they only copied Comick appearance but the source code is different. 3.** Comick lost 1.5 months of data **when I upgraded the PostgreSQL server but forgot to restart the backup process. But servers were removed -> I can’t recovery these data, but Comick is continuing to build data again. Also, you could check old manga by searching in your browser’s history.
          3. Your passwords are always encrypted, so your password won’t be exposed. Even I don’t know what is your password.

          I know Comick suddenly became a tracker/wiki, so it will lack a lot of features, but let’s just wait and see.
