Tell HN: Comixology Site is gone, redirects to Amazon

The Comixology site now just re-directs to Amazon. Personally, I feel it is a bit of a shame since a lot of the Comixology features such as big thumbnails, instant preview, advanced search features, etc.. are missing in the Amazon site.

I'll miss the old site and the Amazon Site for browsing comics feels like a reduced experience.

It's one thing to not care about the customer experience, but this update seems to forget they had customers at all. As a Canadian, I can't even find the content I spent thousands of dollars for over the past 10 years.

It is baffling what anybody involved was thinking here. I assume there had to be huge cost savings, because they've essentially destroyed the business. It is an absolute UI dumpster fire. I don't think I could design a worse technically functioning service if I tried.
