I did it again… started another Fediverse service, this time a Bookwyrm instance.
I used Goodreads, but if there’s a Federated alternative, why not use that… So I setup a server and opened registrations.
Enjoy, and please let me know if you find anything that can be improved or changed.

this is pretty cool, but I never understood the appeal of “hey guys im reading this book”
I just subject that to the first person I talk to at work instead lol

It’s more like:
You: Hey guys im reading this book
Random Guy: Hey! I’m currently reading this book as well!
You: Cool! Let me check out what else you like!
And that’s how you find your book people and with them a stack of unread but cool books you need to work through.
I’m reading Dune and House of Leaves right now, what books are you reading rn?
TIL about Bookwyrm very cool!
I use it. It’s great for seeing your progress of reading a book over time. I update the # of pages I read for every book and the dates show me my pace.
I really need to ditch Goodreads and get into Bookwyrm. :)
Who are some people to follow on Bookwyrm?
I use Storygraph instead of GoodReads. Open source projects have something against recommendation algorithms and that’s the only reason I would rate what I read on a website.
