I recently discovered Bookwyrm and am really liking it. It’s not quite as full-featured as The Storygraph or Goodreads but it covers all of the most important functionalities and it’s federated which I appreciate. Something that it is missing Vs either The Storygraph or Goodreads at the moment is volume of reviews (ie. Volume of users.) However, your review won’t get lost in the sea so much and I’ve found that it’s been quite easy to find readers with similar interests.

Anyway, who here is using Bookwyrm? What’s your account so we can all follow each other? (Mine is [email protected])

    I’m also new to this whole Fediverse thing. What I managed to do is:

    1. Create an account on a Mastodon server
    2. Create an account on BookWyrm
    3. Find the BookWyrm account through the Fedilab app, being logged in with the Mastodon account, and follow (searching for [email protected])
    4. See posts I made on BookWyrm after I followed in the Fedilab app

    I have not found a way to search for users Jerboa which I use for Lemmy. And searching through the website, I don’t find my BookWyrm account. I guess it is still early days for some of this stuff in terms of how easy it is to understand and use.
