I downloaded the app but only saw a few stories to browse. No search or tags. I wasn't interested in any of the stories so I closed the app.

Have you considered writing a few dozen comics yourselves to seed the experience? Authors won't want to publish if there are no readers, and readers won't want to brows if there's barely any content.

Thank you for checking out the app - more will be there! We thought we'd launch early and learn what people like before committing to too many projects

good instinct. for content-based things, though, it's really hard to get good information about usage if there's not enough to round out a MVP, so I'd recommend fleshing this out if you want to track more than just initial downloads/clicks. in the early days of reddit, I think for the whole first year, the top posters were the founders, and they created spoof accounts to make it seem like it was more than two people posting. just so readers would have something to see. in your case this is more evergreen content so you probably don't have to go to quite these lengths, but point remains that a media platform is only as useful as the value of the media on it
