Is the catalog on IPFS different to the catalog available via one of the libgen front-ends? I just performed a search on both for one title and it found it right away on a libgen front-end, but not here.
> libgen front-ends Libgen is not the same as Z-library, there are many books on Z that are not available on libgen.

#102What exactly is Z-Library right now? The domains were seized, and there doesn't seem to be a way to access the library or add new books to it. Is it now simply a collection that exists alongside libgen? Is it being run elsewhere? Does the Ipfs mirror get updated from somewhere?

Just be sure to confirm a disposable email address with them or they'll never let you in. Registering an account by itself is no longer enough when using tor and their website will block you and not tell you why.

There is a discord server now, where you will find all your answers, plus some.

I’ve dived deep into IPFS and built several prototypes on top of it. It ended up not being performant enough for me, and that was after heavily modifying the codebase so that it was true p2p browser & server (their webrtc transport had a lot of issues and they didn’t seem too interested in it, but my needs required it as a backbone). The security was also a concern, and the scaling had issues. Pinning millions of sma…

#107Is it dangerous to host sites like this? I love making tools like this but worry about the repercussions
It's ridiculous that this is what people need to do to help others, but that's what ridiculous laws and circus courts get you.

Working on this now, cherry-picked audio from such AI systems abound, but submitting arbitrary text for audio synthesis requires a much higher quality bar to be listenable. Planning to have something out early 2023.
What's the best off the shelf solution you've found? I've been trying a few different apps to read my queued articles to me, but all of the voices are awful.
However I also got tired of manually extracting text and running my script so now I mostly use: https://www.listenlater.fm though on this I just use the “Matthew”. For 5-10 min articles it doesn’t really matter, you get used to the voices so long as you can do something else in the meantime lol.
