I'm currently waiting for Mozilla to accept this into the add on store. If that passes, I will submit it to Chrome as well.
I saw the shebang and still didn’t understand what the heck roku was.
Until I searched it:
“Raku is a member of the Perl family of programming languages. Formerly known as Perl 6, it was renamed in October 2019.”
I guess the rest API will do, ugh.

I made an iOS Shortcut based on the same code. To use it after installing, access it from the iOS Share screen when you're on a relevant site. It will look for preferred mirrors from Wikidata before running.

Always review a Shortcut's actions before running it.
As an example I get the icon in the top left of the page for this random IEEE paper: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/6025669
javascript:(function(){window.location = 'http://' + window.location.hostname + '.sci-hub.st' + window.location.pathname;})();
javascript:window.location='http://sci-hub.st/'+window.location
javascript:location.href = 'https://sci-hub.se/' + document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML.match(/10\.\d{4,9}\/[-._;()\/:A-Z0-9]+/i)[0]I think it would be marginally quicker for me to access a paper legally if I was on my uni's campus. But I am WFH from the other side of the country and would need to log into the VPN. Sci-hub with one of these solutions would be much quicker!
My company gives me access to a few journals, but at home I have no such thing. $20 is ridiculous for a paper, given that (a) the authors rarely see anything of this money, and (b) you often need to skim 10 papers before you find the 1 that's relevant.
Luckily, many papers in my research domain (compsci/ML) are open access. 90% is either on arxiv or Google Scholar knows a pdf URL.
For the rest, scihub is a lifesaver.
IMHO it's not rarely but never, I'm not aware of any plausible scenario where any author would ever get a single cent of that payment.
The authors never see anything of that money. Scientific journals do not pay for the authors of the published research papers.

They did release a bulk issue of 2.7 million articles a few months ago (as part of the torrent collection available from libgen), but nothing new since then.
I've had a lot of success running Zotero's translation server for my own bibliographic needs, but I would really love if I didn't have to host it on a server somewhere (and could actually do that part in a browser engine I depend on to download PDFs anyway). Has anyone here figured out how to wrap the translation server brains (i.e., the recipes for each URL) into a simple library?
You can set up a keyword e.g. "shb" for (code from above)
javascript:window.location='http://sci-hub.se/'+window.location
Or how do y'all use boorkmarklets? E.g. on chrome? Is your boorkmark bar always visible?
What do I actually write in the address bar?
1. Create a temporary bookmark (e.g. by pressing ctrl + D, or clicking or the star in the address bar)
2. Open your bookmarks (e.g open the bookmark bar, or press ctrl + B)
3. Right click on the bookmark, and choose "edit bookmark" (or right click, then press "i")
4. Fill the "URL" field with
javascript:window.location='http://sci-hub.se/'+window.location
5. Fill the "keyword" field with "shb" (or whatever you want)
http://sci-hub.se/ + window.location
