"The end of 立ち読み (Tachiyomi) is the beginning of みほん (Mihon)"

What's New?
Well, nothing, except you now you need Android 8+ to install...
For now it should work but it will have an increasing likelihood of breaking with every future Android Update.
Migrating to Mihon now is recommended, one of the devs worked on Tachiyomi and for now the code is almost identical which allows easy migration via a Tachiyomi Backup.
Migrating in the future might be more difficult because incompatibility between Tachiyomi and future versions of Mihon could mean Backups from Tachiyomi cannot be restored by Mihon.
When is tachiyomi expected to not function anymore?

Great point! Thank you for this insight
Edit: I just tried to restore a backup from tachiyomi and for me it didn’t work and gave me an invalid backup error message.
Can anyone confirm if it worked for them?
