You can still go there to read them https://www.gocomics.com/realitycheck but it was convenient to pull down the list of the ones I wanted. The app depended on the 'comics' module. It would stop working as gocomics added another hoop. After an upgrade it would start working for a while until yet another change. The current solution is to use Playwright.
