I wanted to download a book that is no longer in print, but I discovered LibGen is down on the .onion and on the .fun domain, the .rs domain gives some scary warning message from my router about child pornography. What happened, is my dear LibGen gone?

Holy fucking shit you beautiful bastard!! What the fuck, how fome I've never heard of this before?

It EASILY listed MULTIPLE copies of the book I was searching for, but I've not been able to find it anywhere else.

It's recently launched (~9 month ago), and only starting to get popular ~2 months ago, so it's understandable that many people still don't know about this site.

You are a godsend sir.

Yes I tried that one, the book wasn't there sadly. I also like the search options for LibGen more, and nostalgia I guess haha. Will try Anna's archive in the future when I need something specific! Thanks for the tip

I thought I was a fine pirate until I found out about FMHY.

There are many heads of Libgen. .rs and .fun are legit.
