Comment on Bringing the power of books to the fediverse
ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 7 months agoThere are a lot of lists that are public too so don’t worry about that.
Cool, but if I need an account to see them then they’re not really public. Maybe it’s me but I did not see any link to any actual open content. If you could point me to one I’d be happy to look again.

Try this.
BookWyrm is designed to be a replacement for Goodreads, so it operates in a fairly similar way.

Thank you, that IS very similar to Goodreads, and then I was able to follow a random reviewer link to more content to browse. Thank you.

No problem. The whole.point of it is as a federated Goodreads replacement - the data is freely available, so all Goodreads has in its favour is it’s momentum and the sunk cost fallacy.
Ever since Amazon bought Goodreads I’ve been waiting for something like this, although I haven’t found the time to.impott my data and get properly stuck in. The main downside is I now want a BookWyrm for films,.comics, action figures, etc, etc. They’ll turn up eventually I suppose.
