Scanlators are being double squeezed. It's ogre.
One problem is the same speed as anime had. If a manga has views, you can be sure someone will make a shitty machine translation of every new chapter, and dump it immediately on release.
And the readers eat it up, they want to read the first release, no matter the quality. Which means the quality translation will have much much fewer views, barely any compared to the slop translation. The quality group will eventually just drop the manga. I have seen so many good manga dropped because of this in the past few years...
The other problem is the legal stuff, manga is popular now, and you're gonna get sued. Sometimes even preemptively even before a western publisher licences it.
