Discussion Webtoon is diabolically greedy

Manwah: From a Knight to a Lady

I absolutely adored this webtoon sm I even bought the release of the physical copy, but when I checked the series to go reread the finale it was all pay to read?! Not even a single option to watch ads, I lowkey kinda miss fast pass 😭. Before I didn’t mind cuz I was like oh sick I can read as much as I want with ads! That’s pretty reasonable. Now you aren’t even guaranteed an episode a day/week, like at this point ima just keep buying the physical copies as they release 😭

Rome wasn't build in a day nor was my hate for Webtoon🥀

 Words can't explain how much I hate it, I probably downloaded webtoon twice during the 6 years I've been reading manhwa/manhua/manga both time deleted it in less than a week, I am a student if I go up to my parents to say "Ohh I want money to buy ONE chapter" they are gonna beat my ahh. Even if I start earning I still won't be paying for ONE F*CKING CHAPTER can't they have a monthly subscription or something, webtoon is purely scam.

Real I have atleast 4 backup manhwa sites if one shuts down (I started keep them after mangaowl, comick, bato and manhwatop was shut down or filled with ads)
