massgrave.dev should be good

lmaoo ty yeah i genuinely dont understand the hate 😭 yeah annas archive soon come 😊

annas archive doesnt have fast downloads for free users - downloads take around a good 30 mins for a decently sized books

bookracy aims to fix this issue

we will be moving off discord soon

when i mean janky it does and serves its purpose but my code isnt cleaned up and theres alot of redundant code - im currently doing a rewrite and when that is done i will release it

nw i was just explaining lol

the namecheap domain was bought using fake details on a paypal that had no card connected to it - but i understand which is why i bought a .ru domain from cheapprivacy.ru

ive made nothing from the advertisement on the home page - instead we were donated a server by snowcore to act as our proxy and caching server. No monetary gain has come from the advertisement and the storage server is paid out of pocket since we havent gotten much donations yet

Bookracy doesn’t exploit the copyrighted material for financial gain, unlike typical piracy websites that might sell access to pirated content or host popup / redirect ads for profit And for the part of me commiting a crime its always innocent until proven guilty - if it can be proven im storing the books fair play but weve taken precautions against that paying through crypto bulletproof servers ect

since its open source and the backend will be open source in the future (after i rewrite) i can still step away from the project and everything can be taken and hosted by a different person

Revolt.chat

ill check it out ty for the suggestion

i didnt kno this would cause so much backlash 😭 we only set it as russian federation as jokes i can change it to north korea if you want it doesnt mean the project is from there

also anyone can register .ru domains, i got mine from cheapprivacy.ru where i paid in crypto - an .ru domain along with .su and .to are one of the best domains for piracy since they are very lax and ignore most takedown requests

no having a .ru domain is just precaution for takedown requests - ive been in the piracy game for quite a while and the tld’s that are normally immune to takedown requests are .su .ru .to and .li I didnt know having a .ru domain would be this controversial and the github is only set to russian federation because of the .ru domain we have - if you check all the devs the times they are awake would all me western times

the twitter was made by someone else on my team and isnt even used anymore

we arent monetizing the site - we still need a way to fund the project and snowcore have kindly agreed to give use a bulletproof server that we use for caching and proxying between our storage server

all money ever donated or gained is invested back into the project - we arent making anything

i can assure you this isnt a fed op lmao. idk how i can convince you maybe check out the github and check out the devs? some devs are from other big projects like movie-web ect that got taken down.

plus downloads arent hidden behind registration, and we are addnig accounts in the future but its going to be mullvad style - a 12 digit unique identifier so privacy wise theres nothing tying you to the downloads except your ip, which we also dont save so you are fine

having a .ru domain is just precaution against takedowns - none of the devs are russian its just the west and russia dont get along so takedown requests for a .ru domain would be ignored by russia

our model is just like the old movie-web, we are open source and if we are DMCA’d then we will take it down but our mirrors will still be up but i understand the opsec point and may move from discord to signal

i said annoying ad-free i should have clarified i meant no popup or redirect ads - and yes there are plans for scaling and we have a few different services like you saw sponsoring the project aswell

No its not a libgen mirror - we have our own collections and are torrenting from libgen + zlib aswell - and backend is going to be open sourced in the future once its finished and ready - right now the code is very janky and im too embarassed to release it lol. Theres still alot of additions to do to the backend and once that is done I will release.

We also have a telegram and signal group - the discord was just for my existing community who are primarily discord users aswell
