It's not working for me. I have two books of my own, and still, I never go there.
AFAIK Amazon acquisition didn't ruin Zappos. IMDb is more garbage than it was before, but I still use it. But Goodreads: nope, it was too close to what they already did on book selling, so they killed it. Slowly.
- dimaor 3y agolol, I am only using GR for the title + image which is downloaded when you post the URL into notion. never even considered being influenced by random people from the internet, unless this is someone I know.
- scrum-treats 3y ago> AFAIK Amazon acquisition didn't ruin Zappos. As someone who used Zappos a lot before Amazon acquisition, IMO the quality and selection decreased after Amazon takeover. Today, given the authentication issues across all Amazon services, I just don't go to Zappos anymore because I don't trust the products. Because Amazon. Additionally the UI is dated. Such a bummer.
- AlbertCory 3y agook, that's why I said AFAIK. I've only used it a couple times, but no issues.
