jesus christ
also NO do not follow those instructions that is the dumbest shit i have ever seen. 1, i love scihub dearly but i'm not sending you all my dns requests plaintext, 2, the servers listed are brokedick rn anyway, 3, lol, latency, no
anyway the issue is scihub uses cloudflare so even if you know the IP you can't just put that in the browser. there's a million ways to fix this but the above method is by far the worst
assuming you use windows

1. open notepad or w/e in admin mode
2. open "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" for edit in that
3. add "{tab}104.18.58.63{tab}scihub" to an empty line. save.
4. profit. also now you can just type "scihub" in the browser
if you use a mac i'm sure there's a similar solution but i'd have to google for the equivalent. if you use linux fucking with fiddly shit constantly is what you live for so you don't need my help anyway
while we're on the topic of dns and again assuming you use windows and you're a pseudonormie, if you don't use SimpleDNSCrypt, you're wrong
normie instructions go: 1, download and install it; 2, enable it for all the things it will let you add green checkmarks to, 3, if you're in the US, pick the closest two "CS [city]" servers for your primary & secondary. not in US, ymmv, haven't benchmarked those
