Back in the day I recall finding lots of well curated and conveniently packaged ebook collections. Things like Goodreads choice 20XX, top 100 sci-fi of all time, etc. These days I know plenty of places generously providing individual books, but not where to find these nice collections. The ability to browse popular releases would also be nice. Ideally I would avoid needing to setup specialized tools, like readarr. But if something like its list feature simply blows away any other options I’d consider it; whatever gets the best results in the least time.


Personally, I use IRC. There are guides up from around 8 years ago that still apply today. Ill link them once Im free in a few hours.
Do they offer any advantages over anna’s archive?
Only in that I found books there that are not available in the archive.
Latest example: The Genki textbooks for learning Japanese.
This is awesome and I had no idea it existed. But I’m not seeing how this offers better collections/discovery?
Your right. They do not offer collections. Sorry I didn’t read properly 😔
That would be appreciated, thanks
Sorry for being late. The day would not end :(
I’m on Bazzite, and personally use the IRC chat that comes as part of the KDE Plasma suit (dont remember the name, but you can get it in the Bazaar)
Dang, it had to be on reddit. Unfortunately, I don’t have access.
Thanks for posting!!
Pre edit: I don’t turn my VPN off for anything or anyone. And I deleted my Reddit credentials on that fateful July a few years ago
