Let’s just all stop and appreciate that libgen is a thing in the internet. It has saved me so much money with very overpriced math textbooks during college when my family was low-income. It contains virtually all the books, and even obscure ones. It provides low barriers to entry for knowledge for people wanting to advance their career, and perfect for finding epubs for books to send to my kindle. (I buy physical copies of books, it’s just convenient to have a kindle instead of volumes of lord of the rings while travelling)
Overall, this is what the internet promised. Fast, easy, universal access to information. It sucks that governments are trying to take it down, and do what governments do best which is to restrict the flow of information and restrict freedom.
10/10, libgen is the best thing in the internet. Long live libgen

As a fun experience, try downloading any sources you can on libgen about a low level programming language and then try to code on it without ever looking up the internet. Just these sources.
The fact that this is doable speaks volumes about how big of an information source it is. Not everywhere has good access to internet, but the knowledge to progress further is certainly obtainable.
Code a terminal application that downloads from libgen from a c tutorial book you downloaded from libgen

It’s gift from the god.
I just now found a book recommendation and it’s on my Kindle within 30 seconds.
libgen is awesome. Every book I searched for is there.
