They use reddit instead of lemmy or their own forum... bizarre.

Genuinely pretty interesting. It's one thing to know a shadow library like Anna's Archive exists, but it's another to see what goes into it behind the scenes. Most people just see webpages. To many, it's where the books come out of for free, nothing more.

Holy shit that image is so fucking based. I'm glad I'm not the only one who realizes how stupid consumerist rhetoric is.

Everyone who thinks art won't get made or engineering won't get done without copyright and patent laws has never paid attention to history.

The tech stack reminds me of this: https://boringtechnology.club/

Autossh does not do tcp-over-tcp when forwarding, if I understand that correctly. TCP is from localhost client to localhost SSH client, no syn/ack frames are tunnelled, just the data stream.

I've had a similar setup, and also found Wireguard unreliable. Went with Nebula and never looked back, not once I had a network problem caused by it.

Man, if I ever find my books via their search, I'll be so hyped
