we arent monetizing the site - we still need a way to fund the project and snowcore have kindly agreed to give use a bulletproof server that we use for caching and proxying between our storage server
all money ever donated or gained is invested back into the project - we arent making anything
i can assure you this isnt a fed op lmao. idk how i can convince you maybe check out the github and check out the devs? some devs are from other big projects like movie-web ect that got taken down.
plus downloads arent hidden behind registration, and we are addnig accounts in the future but its going to be mullvad style - a 12 digit unique identifier so privacy wise theres nothing tying you to the downloads except your ip, which we also dont save so you are fine
i meant annoying ad free as in no redirect or popup ads - we still need a way to fund the project since donations are scarce
having a .ru domain is just precaution against takedowns - none of the devs are russian its just the west and russia dont get along so takedown requests for a .ru domain would be ignored by russia
our model is just like the old movie-web, we are open source and if we are DMCA’d then we will take it down but our mirrors will still be up but i understand the opsec point and may move from discord to signal
yep im planning on setting up an ipfs node and torrents for our own collections are planned for the future
i said annoying ad-free i should have clarified i meant no popup or redirect ads - and yes there are plans for scaling and we have a few different services like you saw sponsoring the project aswell
No its not a libgen mirror - we have our own collections and are torrenting from libgen + zlib aswell - and backend is going to be open sourced in the future once its finished and ready - right now the code is very janky and im too embarassed to release it lol. Theres still alot of additions to do to the backend and once that is done I will release.
We also have a telegram and signal group - the discord was just for my existing community who are primarily discord users aswell
also no Bookracy is not decentralised - it operates on centralized servers much like LibGen ect. This means that while it’s open-source and community-driven, our infrastructure still relies on traditional hosting, which can be vulnerable to takedowns or disruptions. However we’ve taken precautions for this and have a bulletproof proxy server which also caches inbetween the storage server and client
Is there any Upside over NexusSTC? Is it decentralised? bookracy has faster and unlimited downloads, lack of popup/redirect ads, and a more active community. also from my knowledge NexusSTC is more academic content whereas bookracy has more of a range of content
well idrk im guessing some people have political reasons to dislike russia
.ru was for precautions against DMCA and the russian federation thing on github was just jokes because we had a ru domain
im so lost…
yeah sure a little help on getting started would be great but ill get to it
You can try request a book on bookracy .ru (on the reddit or discord) and we will find it for you
have a storage server bought from either hetzner or contabo ect and have a bulletproof proxy server from either alexhost or snowcore.io (i suggest getting one of their kvms) and using nginx to proxy
its the current setup of bookracy that I have and it works great
no having a .ru domain is just precaution for takedown requests - ive been in the piracy game for quite a while and the tld’s that are normally immune to takedown requests are .su .ru .to and .li I didnt know having a .ru domain would be this controversial and the github is only set to russian federation because of the .ru domain we have - if you check all the devs the times they are awake would all me western times
