Doesn't Anna's Archive already include a full backup of Sci-Hub and distribute it via Torrent and IPFS in addition to their website and the providers and mirrors they usually use for uploading?
Scihub database stops in 2021. Big win for corporate publishers and wealthy scientists; they've had an edge since then. It's super important to have access to up to date resources. The database here seems to fill the gap - Merry Christmas to me!!
Anna's Archive allows new uploads though. From their website:

That's great! Stc looks like a different effort. Variety is great on this front as it's a monumental task archiving these papers.
