To be clear, I have no problem buying ebooks and do so quite often. But where I live its often hard to find ebooks in my preferred language without resorting to Am*zon, especially when it comes to the more obscure titles.
Now that Zlibrary is gone, where do people go for liberated ebooks?
Anna’s Archive is, in my opinion, superior to Z-lib.
Really great service with loads of mirrors!
As per the previous comment, you can still find Z-Library via Tor at this onion address:
loginzlib2vrak5zzpcocc3ouizykn6k5qecgj2tzlnab5wcbqhembyd.onion/
But you need to create an account to access it (use a disposable email address). Otherwise I know libgen.li is a well stocked archive
Who said that Zlib is gone? Besides Tor, you can get access to personal domains by sending an email to blackbox [at] zlib [dot] se
I know it may sound scammy, but if you still have a Reddit account I’d go to r/zlibrary and browse the pinned megathread for more info. I really hope that this community will eventually migrate here though…
The zlibrary is still available on Tor, which isn’t that difficult to use (even on mobile).
Private trackers work well if you’re already into that sort of thing
Libgenesis
Anna’s archive is even better. More like a meta search engine.
