More like: "is Google still relevant?" Specially for the kind of people that browses Sci-Hub. It's been months since I've done a search in ad-ridden Google.




I know lots of people who still use google.

Sci-hub has ceased to be mentioned or considered when scientists/grads I know look for papers. Everything has gone back do “Does your institution have a subscription for X?”.


There is a successor to SciHub which relies on IPFS

You mean Nexus?

Yes. Its not perfect, but it has a decent coverage

I still use sci-hub because the newer the article, the less I trust it.

I am not a student anymore, though.


Well for a student or researcher, that’s completely impractical.

What country are you in, if you don't mind saying?
