Does sci-hub have up to date content these days? Having pretty wide journal access through my institution means I don’t need to reach out to sci-hub.

  sci-hub proper hasn't been updated since it's indefinite pause in december 2020. Alternatives are of variable success depending on field. It might be better for CS/Math, but medicine and life sciences it's pretty bad.

    i believe they paused due to an indian court injunction and the case was heard this year, does anyone know any update?

      How would an Indian court case have any jurisdiction in Russia (not to mention mirrors)?

        Sci-Hub complied with the order with the intent to actually argue their case (and possibly establish a legal justification for the site), rather than just defying the order and continuing to play cat-and-mouse with every authority.
