Re: Z Library
#22For those who may not know, this is a front-end to LibGen. I like the search feature more and use it now and then, but for me the 5-downloads-per-24h limitation is usually quite limiting.
The recommendations are also generally good.
Z-Library for discovery, LibGen for fulfillment!

Friends have been telling me it's generally easier to find stuff on z-lib than it is on libgen.
Does it have a better search engine? Does it have more books than libgen? Are they just wrong?

From my experiences with it, in LibGen you have to search exactly what you want. A simple typo ruins it. Z-library is a better in that regards, so typos don't really ruin the search, allowing you to find stuff more easily.

#26I’ve used this for a lot of math and CS textbooks. I’m not sure if this has been posted before, so feel free to flag it if it has.
You can run it through https://hn.algolia.com/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fz-lib.org%2F

Re: Z Library
#27I was under the impression that (at least the books section) is a giant free-for-all download archive, i.e. pirated works (== download epubs of commercial novels you didn't pay for).
What am I missing?

I don't know whether they have a different dataset of books, but the search engine is definitely vastly superior. Not only in looks, but most importantly in terms of results.

I think Z-lib indexes libgen's recent uploads much faster, so it makes a difference for newer books.

Why is that limiting? Can you honestly read more than 5 books in 24h?
