- _Algernon_ 2y agoWhen I had access to academic journals through my (western, wealthy) institution I would still mostly use scihub. The simple reason was that I got conditioned to doing that because the login wall to doing it legitimately was often too painful. At a certain point my workflow switched to checking scihub first, then going the legal path if scihub failed. It saves a lot of time, and I suspect it is a lot more common than most people think.
