    I support idea of Bookwyrm. But unfortunately using Bookwyrm is best described as a chore. Way too many issues, unable to load page, slow etc. But still, I will rather use Bookwyrm than Goodreads.

      I am just getting started myself. I have been tracking my reading with a spreadsheet and I was able to bring my data in. I like the way it organizes and tracks the books I read. But it seems to me one of the core features is connecting with other readers to help find new things to read, so I am trying to find some well connected nodes as a hopping off point.

      Use a different instance then. Bookwyrm is like Lemmy or Mastodon, you have other options for servers.

        Unfortunately it’s so incredibly unintuitive that most people wouldn’t know how to do that
