Project Gutenberg vs library apps for old sci-fi, Gutenberg won me over

I spent a month trying to read 1950s sci-fi on my phone using a library app, but the wait times were brutal, like 6 weeks for one Asimov book. Switched to Project Gutenberg last Sunday and had the whole public domain catalog instantly, including 3 lesser-known titles I couldn't find anywhere else. The formatting on my e-reader is way cleaner too, no glitchy chapter jumps like the app had. Anyone else given up on library holds for older stuff and gone straight to Gutenberg?

Six weeks for Asimov is why I now treat my library app like a bootleg, not a library.
