Thank you! Well, they can still go to the Tapas forum I guess. This is just a personal observation from me but LGTB+ contents aren't exactly as popular on Webtoon as Tapastic. Do you mean webtoon format (vertical scrolling style) oriented? I have seen quite a few for Webtoon though. How much better are notifications on Tapas? I don't understand why they didn't have a "delete your account" option in the settings section. Way more interaction over there in terms of regular commentors.

Negative or positive stories welcomed. 58.7K. Webtoon will ONLY email you if someone responds to your comment in particular. I'll make the adjustments with the Tapas banner...as for Webtoons- that's a whole big clusterf**k altogether. Keep in mind that I love both of these websites and enjoy comics from both sites.

However, with the new tipping program in the Tapas app, I hope to maybe turn the tides? I don't deny there are BL fans on Webtoon, but GL is even a smaller niche compare to BL in general, so I'm not surprised if GL doesn't do as good as BL, and BL/GL in general doesn't do as good as straight romance on Line Webtoon..

We started our comic on Webtoon and Tapas roughly the same time in july 2017. For example, with the same comic I got to over 2000 subs on Tapas, but only ~200 or so on Webtoon - but while I feel like I plateaued a bit on Tapas, even mid-tier popularity on Webtoon can mean tens of thousands of subscribers. At the end of the day, being able to schedule posts, and in any order, is a huge quality of life improvement.

The Strange Gameplay Loop of Chao Gardens, Journal Entries, Short Stories, and Our Future. Tapas is also a little more creator-geared than Webtoon, community wise: they have some good forums to meet other creators to talk shop, there's better tools and analytics for creators, and there's also a higher percentage of desktop readers (still the minority compared to mobile, but a bigger slice than Webtoon.)

Since I've posted my comic (shameless plug) on both sites on the same day in December, LINE Webtoon has reached 2.2k views and garnered 300 subscribers (just reached that number today, actually ^^), and Tapastic has only reached 600+ views and 35 subs, after a lot of advertising and some participation in the forums. Honestly I'd say the percentage of people that are uneducated on LGBT matters in general is larger on Webtoon than Tapastic. Oh.

Actually, readers tend to be harsher toward BL/GL manga and the majority of them get low rating because of that. Want to stop having private chats? Me personally have seen all sort of readers on Webtoon and have a fair share of them myself so despite updating roughly 20-30 pages an update, too short comment is a regular for me.
