“The first seforim ever printed was printed by non-jews.”
What’s the mashal? I’m not talking about an inyan of getting something from a Jewish source or having it be created l’shem mitzvah. I’m talking about something created with chillul Shabbos.

L’maaseh, I agree with you that it’s probably mutar and comparable to Jastrow, with the exception of the siddurim they have on Sefaria. But, I will say, I started the thread as somewhat of a joke, but I would now truly entertain the possibility that one should l’hatchilah try to use HebrewBooks over Sefaria.
