Well, it doesn't affect me or my reading habits.
But, for those, to-whom it does, original bato.to has been bought by MangaWindow, a manga aggregator site and the old good forum is up at vatoto.com, albeit kinda broken at the moment as I see it (like series forums aren't working atm ; e.g. TOG forum).
For what it counts, you may continue there or not, it's on you ultimately.
Many of the scans on bato.to have moved on already, some went to MangaMex, some found there own solution. I personally like microblogging page + cloud storage / drive (for quality download ad easy setup), unless you got the budget or dedication to put up your own website.

Anyway life goes on. Future awaits You...Us.
Have a nice day ~

I'm at least not having any problem with any of the manga forums on vatoto...

https://vatoto.com/forums/topic/27005-spoilers-until-the-dawn-of-t ime-tower-of-god-leaked-chapters-part-2/

It was a little wonky right after they migrated to the new site, but all the comic pages have been restored now as far as I know, you should just be able to access the comic's forums from there or wherever else

Wait, so the inevitable replacement site is the old site. Well the forums anyway. Kinda lame.

Hahaha I go there just for this particular link these days. We got Discord TOG server, Reddit TOG, FB Torre de Dios group (español), and raw sources...but, can't just forgot old pals, having more never gonna bite you anyway.
When I made the thread, any link on the series forum was redirecting me to bato.to. Now, it seems to be fixed.



Yeah, mangawindow seems to be using the domain as a mirror atm. Old forum migrated to another domain and smaller server. The balance between Manga, Scanlators and Readers ecosystem there they created there is broken though. That's what seeing from third person view tells me.

I wouldn't be so quick to use this new Bato.to right away (readers that is).

Just checking a random series... they uploaded a scan from Mangapanda which already seems to ruin image quality and adds their logo everywhere instead of getting a cleaner version.
