isn’t yandex Russian owned?

[–] cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 hours ago

Yes, that's why they don't care about copyrighted content outside of Russia.

Well that's a funny coincidence, I've removed Google URLs and services from all my devices and browsers.

Waiting to see who grapheneOS is working with next year and what models, then completely and finally degoogling my life.

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

[–] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 14 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

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 2 points 4 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.

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?

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

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 5 hours ago

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

[–] sidebro@lemmy.zip 11 points 7 hours ago

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