(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Hey everyone! 📚 I’m excited to introduce Bookracy, an open-source shadow library dedicated to preserving and freely sharing knowledge. With a large and growing collection, Bookracy is (annoying) ad-free, non-profit, and lightning-fast ⚡—plus, it’s fully open-source and powered by a passionate community. Whether you're a reader, researcher, or developer, there’s a place for you here. Check out our Reddit, website, GitHub, and hop into our Discord to join the conversation and help grow this movement for open access! 🤝❤️
Bit gross that it's a RU domain though
there is a .org domain and a few other mirrors go check out https://rentry.co/bookracy the .ru domain is just us taking precautions against a takedown request
A lot of pirated content sites are Russian. This just feels ignorant or racist.
Why?
You really have to ask?
I was an idiot and read it as .ro for Romania. Of course I know about Russia and the war.
Still I also wouldn't comment on people posting .com-links, even though the US are fighting endless illegal wars for decades and the president is wrecking democracy for a police state.
.com is not the cctld for the us, that would be .us
I know right.
I do not, care to explain?
im so lost...
.ru was for precautions against DMCA and the russian federation thing on github was just jokes because we had a ru domain
And why is it a problem to have a ru domain? Or is it just a russia bad thing?
well idrk im guessing some people have political reasons to dislike russia
If you consider trying to genocide a neighboring country "political reasons" I guess.
Is Russia being imperialist? Yes. Is Russia committing genocide? No.
The forced relocation of 1.6m Ukrainians to Russia is an act of genocide. Hundreds of thousands of these are children.
Dude from uk pointing fingers at other countries is really embarassing
Looks like the GitHub also has its location set to Russian Federation too. 👀
lmaoo that was just for jokes - most of us are from western countries
I see you share Elon Musk’s sense of “humour”.
