The DRM removal tool to remove DRM from ebooks was taken down from github and will most likely be taken down from gitlab soon as well. The more archives we have the better so im sharing the gitlab in hopes some Datahoarder types will archive it and keep it shared via torrents etc https://gitlab.com/bipinkrish/DeGourou

Heres an article about why it was taken down https://torrentfreak.com/internet-archive-targets-book-drm-removal-tool-with-dmca-takedown-230714/

Edit: does anyone here use https://radicle.xyz/ ? Its a p2p network built on top of git and could be a good way to host it while still being able to contribute to it besides making a .torrent for archiving

If you can, please update the readme download section since the releases button and git command still point to the old GitHub

Good call. I'll try and do that but I am easily distracted so may end up disappointing you

Edit: Should be good now

Haha no worries

And thanks! Although it seems like the releases section is empty and the tags section doesn’t include any binaries

I clicked on some of the tags and got to binary downloads but yeah, I've never dealt with releases or compiled binaries via git myself so I have no idea how to make that better at this point Don't cry don't cry don't cry
