    Kenmei isn't a competitor to MangaDex, it's a supplement to it. Kenmei keeps track of what chapters are available at supported sites, so when a title isn't available on MangaDex you can read it elsewhere, including supported official sources. You can easily choose which site to read any individual title on, so if something changes it's easy to switch (and Smart Suggestions will tell you if more chapters are available elsewhere so you can switch if you want).
