I'm surprised that someone that would use Anna's Archive, would use Google as their search engine.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 hours ago

I usually use ddg but sometimes it can't find things in non-English languages whereas google has the results I'm looking for.

Or use a search engine to access it in general. Anna's Archive itself is a search engine, it's better to just bookmark it and search for stuff directly from there.

Is it on a stable website, or does it change sometimes? And what's the address?

[–] kossa@feddit.org 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Is stable for me for a long time already. Maybe you need to switch DNS, as some ISPs have a DNS block. But one should switch DNS regardless.

This was linked in like the first sentence of the article, and it has an up-to-date list of the current URLs.

[–] lemming@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago

Thanks, it would never occur to me to look for it on Wikipedia.

I've seen a lot of very tech savvy people still using google and chrome to this day. It's the top search engine. The majority of people use it, including pirates.

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 3 points 19 hours ago

Sometimes I'm just lazy. Don't use chrome but google as a search engine since it's the default and sometimes I can't be bothered to change it.

[–] sidebro@lemmy.zip 12 points 21 hours ago

They probably don't, tbh. Question is if this will even affect the traffic in any way.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 19 hours ago

If I want to find a pdf, whether it be a book, comic or research paper, I use Yandex - Google has been unusable in that way for a long time now.

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 4 points 19 hours ago

I used to find books and papers by googling the title and clicking on results. It's not that crazy.
