I recently found out that instead of just using online sources, you can also use something you can host yourself, like Komga, in Mihon. I’m just wondering if there’s an advantage to it that I didn’t think of because the only things I can think of are:

  • Progress is synced over multiple devices
  • Online sources can suddenly go offline, your self-hosted service won’t

    Those are two big points though, especially the latter. At least for people concerned with selfhosting their services.

      It’s just that I only read manga on my phone anyway (even though that might be because it’s not synced between devices) and I’ve never had the issue that an online source went offline. I just thought that maybe there are other reasons, like how you can get way better quality when you self host something like Jellyfin for movies and shows.
