    Sorry for interrupting you guys, but what’s libgen? Following those links didn’t make it clear.

      Library Genesis is the platform for the free library, founded in 2008 by bookwarrior.

      freeread.org has a good summary, Wikipedia has some additional infos.

      libgen.fun is just focused on its own mirror, it does not recognize the other mirrors as true to the LG mission. The freeread.org wiki has some good info: http://freeread.org/reddit-libgen/

      Ayy thank you for the announce!

      And CRAZY concidence you’re the guy that helped kick off the original seeding initiative for libgen with your dessalines/torrent-tracker-health tool. Thank you for that, the success of the seeding project wouldn’t have been possible without you.

      More here: http://freeread.org/torrents/
