- robobro 3y agothis is awesome! As soon as I saw this thread pop up, I thought, "this could be a fediverse app..." It speaks to the value of fediverse that so many services are becoming fedi-ized. Not just Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, blogs, 4chan, reddit, but even GoodReads. Thank you for sharing this link!
- sinistersnare 3y agoI have been using Bookwyrm for my personal reading list. Would recommend! Easy to set up. I hear there are some issues with its licensing. They seem to use some sort of 'anti-capitalist' license which is non-OSI. But I think that its ok, we need to start experimenting again, and clearly the OSI model isn't working.
- Ruthalas 3y agoDo you recommend the instance you are on? I am looking to join, but the English speaking instance list was smallish, and I was having trouble choosing.
- sinistersnare 3y agoI am using https://bookwyrm.social https://bookwyrm.social (my username is 'davis' on it) to be honest, I have not tried hard to use any of the social features. But hopefully soon I will try them and have more to say. But for now, all I need is the list of books I want to read, a way to track my progress, and also some light organization. This works great, and it's guilt-free compared to Goodreads!
- Ruthalas 3y agoThank you! I am especially excited that they have an import feature.
